LF: Copperband feeder and a large acclimation box

A little late to the party, but I really recommend High Tide. We got our CBB from him, and it eats just about everything we toss in the tank. We had CBBs from other vendors, tried to train them, gave them lots of pods and eventually they both died. The later may have been due to an ick outbreak. Our HT CBB though is going on over 2 months now, it is healthy, and is growing. Could be just ours, but our CBB is quite the aggressive eater, and has no problems with being in the "pack" during feeding time. Most of the day it hangs with our fox face, probably helps that our CBB and fox face are the two biggest fish in the tank right now.

Agree. I would probably not get that fish but if I wanted one, 100% only from Kenny / @under_water_ninja

I still do not understand why one would take the risk of buying fish off the street. Unless you are highly experienced in quarantine and love to go through the pain of quarantining.

The one I am getting is apparently QTed and eating frozen as I said in the comments earlier.. but yeah no one can assure you that it will eat and live happily once they move to your tank.. probably odds are better with high tide, but at the end of the day it’s a finicky fish that can just stop eating and punish itself to death one fine day after looking all healthy.. I can only prepare myself to be ready with boxes and food and feeders

Yes, understood. However, the word quarantine has a wide meaning, involves trust, and I prefer to rely on the pros to do this properly. The impact from failure is just too large for my risk appetite.
