Believe me, I would not ordinarily have bought the fish from this pet shop.
It's just a little mom & pop type pet shop where they think they're doing
good, but don't really know what they're doing. It's just that I've had two
other pet shops trying to get them for me, plus checking at the local
pet-smart, but haven't been able to find them for a month now. Everyone
tells me that they usually have them quite often, but they've not seen them
very often this summer. So I broke down and got them, just hoping that they
will live. They looked pretty healthy when I got them, so I'll have to trust
to luck after that. The price wasn't even a consideration.
