| Petsmart duping me. I asked for a rubberlipped pleco, she grabs a net, sticks it in the tank, snatches a fish, bags it, puts that bag in 2 more so I can't seen the fish and sends me off with it. I had asked her what she gave me and she said it was a baby rubbernose, probably thinking I was gullabile, but I said I didn't think so and would just go with a regular rubbernose. Unfortunatly she gave me this guy but since he can't live in my 38 for long I will have to either rehome him or sell him for 15.99 (I asked my LFS the price they would give me for a juvinile), I paid 3.99 for him so I could make quite a bit of  off him. |

Where the heck is even the most remote resemblance between a rubbernose pleco and a horseface loach? LOL, those people are insane, can't believe this, haha ... |

| I would take him back but (a) she WAS the manager and (b)I like this guy and would rather see him go to a good home at my good lfs or my mom's tank instead of being scooped out to go into a 9-year old's 5 gallon or a dumpster. Plus she said I was too young to notice the difference, "maybe when you get older yuo will learn how animals evolve through stages".
