Lol....Petco is a Joke... I worked thier part time for extra money for a while and finally just got fed up and quit. the problem doesn't lie within the store, it's there stupid policies. Petco has removed 90% of its remedies for all animals(they don't want you to treat in the store infurmery(sp) they want to pay a vet $100 to save a $5 animal. So basicly the fish are screwed condemed to die a slow death and be comited to the freezer forever after. Can't have a hosbitilzation tank(we infact had 2 till our managment got canned for not follwing company policy) There is very little information if any given to employees about the animals they are handeling. In fact up until managment was changed that store had some of the best and knolagble employess of any of the lps. Now no one has a clue whats going on. As for the tanks they are on a 6 tanks to 1 sump distrubution. Which basicly means as stated before one gets sick and the rest are soon to get it. Petco also sets what you can have in 90% of your tanks and just sends out what ever they feel you should have(mostly clowns and damsels) however if after all the anti petco you still insist oon shopping there special order your fish from them and find out when they do recieve their orders, that way you can check the fish and if it isnt in good health (may be stressed from shipping) just let the store keep it, but if it is in good health you dont have to worry about it getting what may be in thier tanks
