I was rating petco over petland just cuz i think their base livestock seems healthier cuz the first marine fish i ever owned came from petco actually like 11 yrs ago and they didnt immediately die of disease...just my own ignorance heh.

Having purchased fish at petco in yonkers and in Poughkeepsie with success I have to say that some employees that work for them are knowledgeable and if not you should research before you buy. These days with smartphones there's no excuse for not having done your research.

Chain's hire people with little experience... just enough experience to know how to handle the basics. I don't think they can afford a professional, unless the owner themself is a reef keeping pro. Then again, it's a store that sells ALL pet animal goods... I don't think they pay specific attention to one area of pets.

yea they do..but i9f you have a "fish department" especially one w/ marine fish and corals the people in charge of it should not be complete idiots and for the sake of the store and the well being of the livestock they are trying to sell they should at least have someone who is qualified to handle the job. You don't give a job to someone who can't handle it.
