You can't just keep a huge growing fish in a small tank, then sell it. First of all, that's just unhealthy for it. Secondly, most places won't buy it from you, and if they do, it's for $5 store credit. Sorry, but you can't keep any triggers in that 29 gallon. Your LFS wants you to buy it so they get your $30.
