I was TOLD to leave and to NEVER come back at a LFS, something like this. I was wandering around looking at some SWF and overheard the salesperson helping a lady with 75g acrylic reefready complete setup, new tank, stand, CC, lights, canister filter, the works...Then I overheard them taking about the fish she wanted, so I moved in to listen and was totally shocked. The guy actually told her that she could go home, fill the tank with tap water, toss in some amquel and salt, wait an hour and then add the fish she was also going to take home with her. So I kinda stalked both of them around the store and here is what she picked out and was going to take home with her, 2 clowns, 1 hippo, 1 yellow tang, 1 flame angel, a coral beauty, a blue linkia and a seabae anemone.....The sales guy walked away, I pounced on the lady and told her "your being royaly shafted and all those fish are going to die with 24-48 hours" Then I explained in a brief way my experience level and what she should actually do, then I told her to log onto our local site vegasreefers. com and that I would help her. So the guy comes back and she blurts out, "this guys telling me all the fish are going to die and your shafting me, who's lying!" I attempted to explain the cycle process and how some of the fish aren't compatible and the sales guy just went balistic told me I had no experience and was cluless about SW, so I whipped out one of my business cards, gave it to the lady and then they threw me out of the store. The lady was right behind me, we stood in the parking lot for about an hour as I explained to the lady what she needed to do, all the while the owner and sales guy keept screamin at me to get out of the parking lot and they were going to call the police. So I told the lady to follow me to another store that I trust, me and the sales guy helped her pickout her tank and starter supplies minus fish.........Guess the guys were ticked that they lost a 2k sale all in the name of greed
