They pulled it about 40 minutes after initially posting it. At that point their reputation was trashed.They must've pulled it. I can't find any posts on fb or r2r.
Pretty heated if I say so myself, they were literally getting fried on all forums and social media outlets.damn wish i could have seen their responses.
You are right but at the same time, why not educate them from the get go to avoid livestock loss and discomfort of the animal? I'm on the same page with the juvi's being fine for a short time but too often people either kill them before they even mature or grow too attached without wanting to upgrade their tanks. I speak from personal experience when I lost one of my favorite koi in my 100 gallon tub to a bent spine which eventually got me to go up to 1500 gallons to my current 2500 gal pond, reckless on my end. Comparing it to other LFS's, Old Town aquarium years back wouldn't sell me a mandarin for my old establish 75 gallon since I didn't have a refugium.... What's stopping Exotic from doing the same?Honestly... those setups would have been fine for juvis. An LFS is in business to make money and needs people to spend money to do that. New tank owners come into the hobby everyday, so what's the difference between a parent buying a small clown tank because of a movie or some wealthy douche buying a big 120 setup that they're going to fill with clowns, lionfish and eels? Who are the general public to judge how someone gets into this hobby or how an LFS gets them there? Maybe they would have spent some time chatting with these buyers to educate them on care? Are the rest of us any different?
That's part of my point... this type of responsibility is not the norm. Even some of our most loved shops would sell anything without question of the buyer's capabilities. So why does everybody get so huffy when nemo comes out.Comparing it to other LFS's, Old Town aquarium years back wouldn't sell me a mandarin for my old establish 75 gallon since I didn't have a refugium....

It wasn't bad either, and she has a pair of seahorses (all over her social media) so she knows a bit of what she's talking about.Some hottie made a video about it.
Said something about arctic foxes
