Here is a link to an article I wrote on chloroquine:

Aquarium Fish: Chloroquine: A “New” Drug for Treating Fish Diseases

That fish isn't showing any acute signs of disease, but that doesn't mean that it isn't harboring some issue that may show up in a few days to a week later.

It should not have stopped eating for more than a day after bringing it home. What was the salinity difference between the store’s tank and yours?
