what's your worst purchase

[Corydoras Keeper]

Yeah I remember a few months ago I bought a violet goby from a lady who was selling them out of her house. Died a week later from reasons unknown.

4 X melanochromis auratus for my moderately peaceful African tank...little devils.

When I first kept fish and knew nothing, bought 2 Pictish catfish for my 5.5 gallon "community"... That was about 4 years ago.

Jack dempsey pair. Spent a good amount of money on a pair of blue gene JD's and all they did was hide and freak out all the time.

Three 4" apollo sharks - Went in the big tank and less than 3 seconds two got eaten by my datnoids. Much smaller plecos and fish been introduced without this issue prior. 3rd one got moved to baby datnoid tank and became a victim of manslaughter overnight.

breeding pair of discus that turned out to be both males.

My stock list went from 40 FW down to 2. My worst should be when I tried for a red devil, a male giant gourami and a ray, though in different times. I was a lot more stupid, then.

Convicts. Started with two. I think I counted 65 in my 55g when I posted on craigslist, "free convicts, come get em"

I have since educated myself on being a responsible hobbyist.
