Well bad news guys. I've lost one of the albino scarlet peacocks and the juvie acei that I got last weekend. They came from Petco and even though I scanned them meticulously at the store they showed ich a day or two after getting them home. Thankfully I generally assume everything that comes from Petco could have problems so they were in quarantine. still a bummer. I removed the carbon as soon as I saw it and have been treating with meds by their recommended dosing. I'm hoping the last one pulls through. This is a very annoying consistency with that Petco... I may have to suck it up and pay the ridiculous prices of my other LFS. (16.99 for a 2.5 inch peacock...)
I've got a buddy that wants my other acei, he keeps mbuna. Thinking I'm going to let him have mine and not get anymore. I'm trying to talk him into the zebra too but has heard horror stories about them. I really don't think it will be worse than his kenyis, can anyone second that?
One last question, would anyone consider keeping a passive bumblebee with peacocks? I know its ill advised but he is around 4 inches and still pretty docile. My wife is pretty attached to it and of course the convict (crap) so its catching me a lot of guilting that I want to part with those two.
