A person started a topic saying that he wanted to change the population of his aquarium saying he wanted to change the stocking on his 250 litre tank and that he wanted to stock agressive chiclids like piranhas and oscars. He said he wanted to stock something like 2 or 3 piranhas and 1 or 2 oscars, and was asking if the tank size was sufficient.

Thing is that this person had been boasting about working in a fish shop in other questions.

When I pointed out that a person working in a fish shop should know what he can stock in his tank, and more importantly that piranhas are not cichlids, he started insulting me and confirmed that I am a clown answering questions in the Pets->Fish section and that piranhas are cichlids.

... how I despise yahoo answers, where any tom dick and harry can just waltz in and give the most idiotic advice ("You can keep up to 5 goldfish in 20 litres", "Sure a betta will be fine without a heater in untreated tap water") and are taken seriously, because it's what the asker wanted to hear.
