No more liability than for selling you an african dwarf frog, and not
informing you that it will eventually grow large enough to eat all your
fish...

Or for selling you a luleupi and an agassizzi without telling you to put
them in different tanks...

Sure, you can sue if you want to, but I think there's a word for it...
frivolous... ?  You'll be better off if you just find an LFS with
knowledgeable staff, and tell all your friends... or do your homework before
you buy, and spread the word.
