2 days ago I bought 2 juvenile micropelts. Both looked amazingly fine and beautiful. 1 day after, I noticed 1 was getting very skinny. With tattered fins. At first I thought it was my gar bullying it. But after having recorded the whole night with a camera, it wasn't and by morning the fish got worse. I scooped both out and after real close examination I see 7 fish lice on 1 of the fish. And 2 on the other one. I tried to remove the 7 lice on the one that was really weak and did not make it...
Advising others. Please please check he fish before buying and not me as foolish as me

Sorry it's very wordy

The second one didn't make it.. Rip.
And the worst part!! When I called the place I bought the fish from and asked about the parasite. I got this reply "it's okay, don't worry. Just a growth defect"
