Talking wow, i really liked that guy

OK so a guy came into my work today, and i asked if i could help him. He said sure. I asked what kind of tanks he had just because i like to know what he had what he does with it ect. Well it turns out he has about 700 gallons worth of fish tanks in his house. And then i ask what i can do for him and answer what questions he has, even though i can tell he knows what he's doing. So then we get to the fish. He bought about $600 dollars worth of fish for his fish only and reef tanks . Here are the fish he and his wife got and the price:

1 16" thing of a stars and stripes puffer that we've had for about a month and a half. (man, this store is really lonley without that guy) for $129.99

3 ocellaris clowns for $29.99

2 lemon peel angels at $80.00 for the pair

1 regal angel at $99.99

1 koran angel at $49.99

4 square anthias at $80.00

1 high-fin snapper at $99.99

getting a 10 dollar tip for taking everything out to the guys porsche : priceless

This seems more like a advertisement for your store then anything.

How does this somewhat relate to Fish only and Aggressive tanks?

Wow, all those beautiful fish probably dead. Hopefully he'll get someone who knows what he's doing to mantain his tanks,

It concerns me that this guy bought so many quite large fish in one visit - did he take them all away on the spot, or ask you to hold some for a while ?

Even with 700g of tank water, thats quite a bioload to add in one go... though I'm sure you explained this to him...
