A breeder i know also says make sure the gills from underneath the jaw does not hang out, or thats bad stock too. Look for healthy fish, usually ones not hanging out in corners, as those will hide most of the day. For $45 each, you'd get better prices and fish off online, probably from bluechip's and armkes. Shipping is alot, but it'll probably even out since those fish are $45 each. |
