that's....depressing.

Why would they kill all the fish?

The feeder fish tank at the one near me had a carpet of carcasses.. it was gross. and they had some hermit crabs in with some damsels and the crabs ate the fish. it wasn't very nice, they had no idea what they were doing.

I guess I just reminded myself why I stopped going to PetCo...

okay. Don't think just because I'm younger than you means I'm stupid. My shark did fine in a 10 gallon freshwater tank with a blue gourami as a tank mate.

I just got a really cute little puffer today, his name is Billy, and he has a cut on his belly. It isn't bleeding, it just looks like the skin is missing. The manager of the pet store said he was okay but I'm not sure. He's swimming fine but he isn't eating. Is he okay?
