A long list of too many fish I never quarantined.

Lesson learned, but it took years to sink in.

My red wolf. Its a love/hate thing. I love him, he's so awesome but literally the rest of the tank is always at risk. But I hate him since Ive woken up to things like this

Needlefish that squeezed through a divider



Arcara Thread fin.. he was 4 inch and I thought he was just fine no IG deal when introduced, then woke up to that



And a few others that were just gobbled up. Nothing too important (namely bichirs for me) but still, it sucks lol.

Peters Elephant Nose.

Got the last one in the store. Really cool looking fish. Shy. Thought it was normal. He died less than two weeks later for no apparent reason. Water was fine. Took him back and the guy there wouldn't give me a refund or a replacement. Worst of all, this guy had told me this fish was perfectly healthy when I got it, but now he had three more for sale. Same length, but way healthier looking, ten times more active and way fatter. Forty bucks down the tube. Crooked son of a ***** lfs owner. Lost my business.
