It's a very malnourished Lapradei! Went in for a couple clown loaches for my fiance, saw this guy, commented to the owner on how skinny he was and he cut the price from $30 to $10. He had him in a tank with African cichlids, who were clearly eating every bit of food that fell into the tank. He would've died if he was there for much longer... Like I've said, my LFS is horrible. I'm a little worried that he may still be in a bit of danger, stress of the move paired with undernourishment might take its toll

Woah.... On the way it looks now.

Good save. Most would pass on it. If not eating in qt 10g. Try some sinking pellets or very small wiggly worms to get something going. If nothing, try it again at night.

yeah woah is right, it's kinda sad... I almost did pass on it, despite the reduced price. But I knew it would die at this place. well worth $10 to save him (and of course get a lap in the process). Thanks for the advice, will keep it in mind
