This seems obvious but obviously not so obvious. When buying a fish, should the sales person drop the fish on the ground do not take that fish home. Insist on a specimen which comes from the water and not the floor.

ahh I don't know I might want to save that poor fish from the terrible environment *smile*, and QT it for a few weeks. Maybe they should give the fish for 1/2 price seeing they tortured it.

Hey that fish made a choice and we must all live with the consequences. It was either be caught or make a break on dry land. There's a lesson here for those with water based legless life forms... I'm not sure what it is but there's almost always a lesson!

I agree. I wouldn't take home a fish, coral or invert that has been dropped. Seems to me it's doomed once it leaves the store.
