I'm not very old on this forum, especially in this thread, but I can say this is so far the coolest thread I've seen. It's like a cameo appearance by really famous people lol.

He started to show some color today and yes the little snot brought ich home with him.
temp is up and water change every 48 hours...always works for me.

Mike, that's why I almost stopped buying fish from them. I start buying online Even though shipping is expensive but at least I'm getting healthier fish.

Shopping online is the way to go, shipping is normally $10-40 which is a small price for healthy and rare fish.

I went to it couple of weeks ago and they had some nice fish at good prices.

I agree Mogurako, that's why I buy a few fish and do combine shipping.

The ich had cleared off the pasionis and he is now standing up to the pulcher and flaring when ever the pulcher charges towards him. I'm loving this guy.

Thanks! They have more in Bolingbrook I'm thinking about adding another one. Or a meeki but don't know how that will work out. Don't want cross breeding either.

Some nice fish there.

Mike, is the Bolingbrook store better than the Hoffman Estates one?

Update

Well after the ick went away and all seemed to be good the Pasionis stopped eating and started bloating. I moved him to a qt tank and treated. he started acting better last night but still had not pooped. This morning he was dead. I was kind of surprised because he seemed to be doing better.
I replaced him with a meeki who colored up almost immediately and took control of the tank. I'm hoping it works out. The pulcher was standing his ground and is the same size but seems to have given in to the meeki. Funny thing is when the meeki approaches the maronii it just stares the meeki down and the meeki leaves him alone.

Sorry to hear about that, I was stalking this thread and wanting to see him all healed and colored up.
Good luck with the Meeki!
