Summary: The store owner is incompetent at fish identification as born out by my experience at the store below. Most fish tanks list ID of only a single species, even though several species are usually housed in each. The owner was unable to identify a pair of rainbow cichlids in one of his tanks, insisting they were a species that would grow to a couple feet in length. Details: I was curious about a pair of yellow cichlids with black markings which looked to me to be rainbow cichlids in a tank with oscars and convicts at this store. I asked the owner what they were, and he said he didn't know there name, and when I asked if he could look it up for me, he said he couldn't. He only indicated that they grew very large (hand expressions suggested 2 feet). I asked if I could take a photo (he agreed), rushed home and verified my suspicion that the identity was Rainbow Cichlid (Archocentrus multispinosus). I was delighted, because I have been keeping an eye out for this species for some time. Unfortunately, when I returned to the store, the owner, refused to accept my identity of the species (though he refused to compare the internet photos I had on my computer to the fish in his tank) and continued to claim that these little fish would grow very large and were each worth $30, a value far to high for Rainbow Cichlids of any size. I simply was not prepared to pay $60 for a pair, which is at least 3 times their value.
