I went to one of tow LFS's yesterday and was looking to see if I could stumble on something special. They only had one small tank of mbuna's so the kid comes over and asked if I need help, so I asked if they had anymore mbuna. He proceeds to take me to another tank that was fully of beautiful peacocks. I said "these are peacocks" he responded, "they are basically the same thing."

That's the exact reason my reply to anyone that works in fish stores is "nope I'm all set thanks" and I walk away from them lol.
There's is one shop though that I go to every once in awhile that is great. They are about 35 mins from me so I don't get there as much as I'd like, but the owner and the young guys he has working for him are all true "fish nerds" like most of us and they really know their stuff.
