you know some pet shops will hold them for you as long as you pay for it

Hey hey hey c'mon... I was told many times not to rush into anything... Just passing the advice on. It's very easy to get ahead of yourself in this hobby!

+10 on this. Watch your parameters closely and be prepared to do water changes. Your tank should be cycled but I tend to err on the side of caution. Beautiful fish BTW.

Lol.. This is funny cus when I read stroke originally, I didn't exactly know what you meant lol lol... But I digress. To Sonoma- strokes and promiscuity aside, it's better to be patient with this hobby than to have your system crash. No fun when that happens!
