Big Box Shenanigans

[Patrick_G]

I saw this at a local big box store and in a loud voice proceeded to tell my daughter how wrong is was without realizing a young employee was standing about six feet away. I was a mortified, but the young woman was gracious and didn’t say anything. I sure didn’t mean to be obnoxious but the totally wrong advice surprised me!

Yeah that is kinda messed up. Getting two of any fish unless it is a pair is usually bad advice.

And Dwarf Gourami aren’t really all that peaceful and shy. Someone might get lucky and get a peaceful pair, but they might also get two angry males.

It's not completely wrong.  They'll be best friends . . . until they approach maturity, when they'll almost certainly fight until only one is left alive.
