My new blue hippo

I don't think it's fair to blame the origin, since we don't know enough about the OP's practices, parameters, etc. It's ok to question it, but I would take it with a grain of salt.

 

I'd rather not say who I got the fish from. I have bought all my fish from this same online vendor. But I will tell you my history since I started this hobby. My first order ever was a Emperor Angel and a Naso Tang both are doing great. I also ordered 2 peppermint shrimp from them also doing good still. I have ordered a lemon peeled and half black dwarf angels and the half black died the same night I got it. the Lemon peeled angel got eaten by my BTA 4 days later. I have ordered a cleaner shrimp who died and my blue tang that lasted about 5 days. Oh and my tomato clown and BTA came from this vendor both are doing awesome. I have ordered some neon green pokadotted blue mushrooms a whisker Coral and a torch coral. I am very pleased with my Corals that I bought from there. They always send me the best looking corals. I give 20 for the 2 heads of whisker coral and 20 for a 2 headed torch. I'm not going to stop ordering from them or anything they have always gave me store credit for my losses it just stinks have a fish die on ya. I get to attached too them I guess. I just need to learn that its part of it.

 

I agree.
