Being bored last night I scoured ebay pages of fish and I was amazed to find several people selling off tanks of 'cichlids'. Overstocked and some with totally inappropriate stocking. But then you have to give the benefit of the doubt and say they didn't know any better. The cruel people are the ones who did know what they were doing

Think there is some small fonts in there too must be the malawi ones i have never seen

The sailfin plec's (often cross bred with commons, though these seem normal to me), look a tad nipped, yes clown loaches.

Ummm what else does me see wrong with it -

These are specalist fish and need to be kept in a species tank and cannot be mixed with other tropical fish.

Spelling of specialist.

Do not need a species tank.

Not sure if they meant they would not post fish or that you cannot post fish.

Not alot you can do though and like people have said they just might not know.

Let's hope for the fishes sake they sell them to someone who 'does' know what they're doing.
