Why haven't any of my lfs heard about cb seahorses until I came around? They all told me seahorses were impossible and they couldn't even keep them alive in the store.
MOST LFSs are ill-informed, as you may have noticed. They are businesses, and most people are not good businessmen. They don't research because there is no perceived dollar-value in it. All they primarily care about is getting fish in and selling them at a profit. These are typically the companies that REFUSE to carry CB horses, because, "Why stock a CB fish that costs me $25 and I have to sell at $50+ which few people will buy anyway, when I can get a WC fish for $6 and sell for $25 and make a killing?"
