still playing with wet spots
That is why I ALWAYS premedicate new fish - unless I really know the LFS owner (Fish Pro's is the only one currently)I've gotten 2 clown loaches 6 harlaquins an 2 fire red gouromis from them all lived , the Cardinals they special ordered for me i took 4 , 2 lived they are hard to put into a tank ,i have found , none ever live from pet smart. An why the no stock, an special order on cardnials i asked , they said , CAUSE they die. And i have not gotten any thing i did not want in my tank from them either, as for petsmart there gouromis have intestenal dieases an parasites why the gouromis never live past 3 weeks, an there cardinals come with Ich, an normal, a site of dead fish in tanks is common.
It is always a wise idea to give them a medicated bath before putting them in the new tank.
I only had 3 fish die on me and about to loose one of my eel's - he has a collapsed lung and refuses to eat.
