Yesterday for the first time in my life I ordered a fish on line. A copperband. I am not getting a good feeling about this even though the fish is coming from New York where I live but the stores here are not open and I want to replace my copperband that died probably from old age.
Buying on line costs about 3 times more for that fish than I normally spend but I am not caring about the cost, I am more concerned that I can't see the fish before I buy it, especially a copperband.
I just hope they are not quarantining or medicating it because to me, quarantining and medicating a fish, especially a copperband is the same as killing it.
We will see and I hope it goes as it is supposed. I know a lot of people buy fish on line so I may have to get with the 21st century. At least until the LFSs open around here.
I am going to hold off buying my next copperband until yours arrive and please keep us posted on your online experience. I have also never bought online but I am a newby as far as SW. I have been in FW with cichlids for 12 years but never ordered online. Like to chat with my LFS owners and support them as much as I can. For now my LFS has 2 CBB that I am watching. He feeds dinner around 5:45pm so I may have to do a couple of trips to see if the CBB are eating.
