This is why I really - REALLY - dislike the actual LFS, not to be confused with the not so LFS. Since we started this adventure I do not believe we have had correct information from our LFS 10% of the time. I try to do as little commerce there as possible.
We keep a BN in most every tank, we just plain like them. This particular fish was very small and was Id'd on the tank as an Albino BN Pleco. I inquired of three separate clerks about the fish which to me, even at that size, did not look the part. I was assured he was as labeled, and Linda really liked the Albino look. As I have stated a few times on the forum, I generally try to get whatever she wants. At any rate, since day one I have been suspicious of what the critter really was and today was really the first time I took the effort to actually photo him or her.
I will now see how much Linda really loves the fella, especially when I tell her she will need a six foot or so long. She is going to be quite perturbed at the LFS and is going to insist on going there when I inform her. It will not be pretty.
