I rarely go to any LFS but today I was out and about in the North Dallas area and stopped into a couple of LFS's thinking I might find something interesting.

Petco Allen TX, found a beautiful Lighting Clown $29.99 about an inch long and a Mandarin Dragnet about 2" for $16.99 along with a 1" Royal Gamma for $9.99.

I was ready to purchase when I noticed another Mandarin hiding the the rocks, a little smaller and covered with white spots. Needless to say I politely pointed this out to the store manager who said (Uh! Ok!).

I left knowing I missed the dreaded Ick bullet.

As soon as you mentioned Petco, I thought to myself "Say no more"

I would have bought them, and done tank transfer. Those three small fish could have been easily treated in buckets or rubbermaids.
