just wanted to say i picked up 6 of these nice little rainbows today, sadly one female didn't survive the trip home. She'll be replaced tomorrow when i have time to get back over to big als.
 
hurray, big al's.

i dont like big als.. one fish got ich from the move and gave it to my favorite fish, now they are dead :( be sure to make sure no fish are sick in the tanks when u go shopping!

pictures of the wee ones?
 
The big als i deal with awesome, all the employee's are on a first name basis with me and the fishroom manager always hooks me up with great deals. The only time i have ever had a problem with any fish bringing disease into my tanks from theres was when i bought some mollies, luckily i caught it in time and saved my fish. I should also add that the tank had no dead fish and no fish showing any symptoms when i bought the fish, but they also ended up with an ich outbreak in the store tank a day or 2 later. This happend to me about 2 years ago, no problems what-so-ever since then.

I got furcatus from Big Al's around the same time :) They are great. Although I lost a male. I had a bit of a nitrite spike, but also the chasing amongst three males was fierce so that might have been it too. I replaced with a female to make it 4F:2M.
