So yesterday we had three boys come into the store. Probably in their early teens. And the three of them together got a 37 gallon starter tank, some gravel, and a couple of plants to put in it.
No parent in sight.
And like. It was a surprise to have them confidently hand me two $100 bills to pay for everything.
Like where do three young teens get that sort of money. *shakes head* I could only assume that their parent was waiting outside or something.
In any case.
They tried to buy fish right after taking their tank to their car, but we refused because they weren't 18 or older.
Today they tried the same thing again.
And again we stated they needed their parents. -I'm pretty sure 2 of the 3 boys were the same from yesterday, especially because they mentioned they 'bought a tank yesterday'
Though funnily enough they were like "we have a 50 gallon tank" and like...No, I know you bought a 37 gallon instead.
In any case they did manage to bring in an adult to consent to them buying fish.
Though being typical boys hearing "No" meant that they were like "YES!"
Because one boy got really into the concept of getting a koi fish. Despite being told that they would get 3 feet full grown and would need a larger tank and that getting other fish would be better.
But no.
Kid was set.
He wanted to try his luck with the koi.
Ugh. Rolled my eyes so hard.
But yah. Kid ended up with two koi and a black moor.
*exhales*
I hope the fish do alright. But who knows at this point.
