I have seen the same post here but I jus want to bring this up again
The worsting thing I have heard is that My LFS Suggested grinding brine srimp and feed it to new born clowns.

I have seen my LFS Trying to sell a flame angel with 1 eye.
Also Have seen mojano and aiptasia growing on some corals

Never seen anything bad from my LFS, which is why I keep going there! Always get good advice, the staff goes out of their way to help customers, and they just seem to want my business.
Went to a ***** store where I saw dead fish, cloudy dirty water, and a staff that did not give a darn about the condition of their fish. Asked the so-called manager why their tanks were in such poor condition and he said "our saltwater guy is off today" As if that happened in one day. Disgusting, and sad. Never went back there.

one lfs in my area has aiptasia in some of their tanks. another one had a nautilus for sale once - it was packed in a delivery, lfs said it must have been an accidental catch. they had it in a dark, cold tank but they can't replicate the water pressure. in yet another lfs, i overheard 2 staff people talking to a new saltwater guy about the nitrogen cycle and using damsels to do that. this was 2 days after another staff in that same store sold the guy a stingray that the customer put into his newly filled saltwater tank. at least the other 2 staff made him bring the stingray back in, but who needs damsels to cycle?
