Being that I have worked at several fish stores I can help in this situation. Dentoid- you mentioned something about asking about a fish... By doing this you arent testing the employees knowledge. The name that you call a fish may be different than what the employee knows the fish as.

for example: someone came in and asked me if we carried any two tone gobys. I didn't know what she was talking about and i looked it up in a book. I later found out she was talking about a bi-color blenny. So you cant really judge how much a person knows based on a coral or fish name.
