way to be a jackass dude, really.
As you can imagine I don't get paid very much and want to stay in this hobby, so FYI I intended to jump on this deal and use the tank myself, if it's still available when I move into my new apartment on Tuesday.
I'm not sure why you get off assuming I just plan to resell this system via consignment when Lurker knows full well that he could have done that himself, but it's bloody insulting. I take time out of my day to participate in this group to show the commitment my shop has to bettering the hobby on a local level, and you up and give me flack for it. It's discouraging for me to see this kind of distrust of a locally owned fish shop hanging on nothing but it's good reputation.
moral of the story- Show your fish dude some respect, he's got a hard job, it doesn't pay well, and he handles your fish, so at least try to be congenial with him.
