Underdog habbit?

[Demo]

Anybody else pick the "worst" fish out of the group just because you know you can help it/nobody else will want it, i dont think i can list a single time i didnt take the "bad" fish. (example, humpy danios, broken wiskers, cut up tails, ect)

I am not sure if its a good thing, but i cant ever help it

sometimes ... I have a curviceps in my tank at work that I bought because she was the last one left at the LFS ... ditto for the rainbow cichlid I bought last month

one of the best fish I ever had was a beat-up Texas that I bought out of a tank full of convicts

but I only do it when I already have room ... otherwise, too bad ...

I usually look for the best looking fish...Though if there is a fish that looks kind of stressed, and it shouldn't be in that tank, I'll take it.

As a joke we stocked my buddy's 50 gal with all the most mutated, deformed with we received at the store, was a er.... unique looking tank.
