OK-
well, i bought a pair of german blue rams for a 20gl tank i have setup in my bedroom. i bought the fish from a lfs that i don't normally shop at (first mistake). when i bought the fish i asked him to bag them separately in case they were a pair of agressive malesm he told me not to worry that even if they were males they wouldn't fight each other. i took his word for it and let him bag them together (second mistake). upon getting home (about a 15 minute drive) and putting the fish in quarantine i discovered that one of the rams is missing an eye (had both when i left). after calling the lfs and letting them know what happened i asked them if i could get an exchange. they said the don't exchange damaged fish and that i should have insisted that the fish had been bagged separately.
now my first question is this: will the fish's eye grow back, or am i left with a fish that has no depth perception (its joke...)?
second question: should i call the better business bureau and report them...for what, i don't know...lol
i guess i'm just frustrated because this is probably the last tank i will buy for awhile and i wanted the german blue rams to kinda be the centerpiece of my tank collection...and now one of my boys is half blind.
what do you guys/girls think?
