Sounds like someone has too much time on thier hands. I would find something more productive to do.

Exactly. Laugh, put the stuff back... and then kick 'em! :devil: Not really.
Well maybe!?!
well, i gave in and bought 6 cardinal tetra's today from a petsmart. they did fine all the way home, got em in a bucket and started acclimting. after about a half hour of addign small amounts of water i noticed they weren't swiming anymore and their colors looked like they were fading. the water was ice cold when i felt it so i panicked and netted em into my tank and gave em some baby brine shrimp (big thanks to the guy who mentioned a wise ol fishkeeper friend did that). man, are they going nuts, they are gobbling down brineshrimp and racing all over the tank, chasing each other and just seem to be a having a grand old time.
now, that petsmart the people there don't seem to have a clue who are working the department, but the tanks are clean, good assortment and the fish seem active, lively and i saw no dead ones or signs of disease when i've been there so maybe theres someone on staff that knows what they are doing. so, I am hoping this works out and I didn't shock them to death. I gues we'll see how they are in a few days.

I wish I was a fish I wish.
It's a sad turn that these big chains came in. I have been exploring for mom and pops because of them. Luckily I have found some but the ones closest to the big chains are in sad shape trying to hang in with lowered prices.
