Looking to add one of these to my tank.

Anyone out there have one that they may consider parting with or seen any at a LFS?

I recommend buying this fish from someone who has one rather than from a lfs. This is my favourite fish and I tried keeping 3 (not at once) that I bought from the store. They all died. Even the guy at the store told me to buy it from someone who owns one for the best chance at success. So, I bought one from tangman here and it is doing very well. Just my two bits

ya, Powder Blues are brutally difficult. They are delicate, stress easily and are ich magnets. They can even do well in your tank for about a month, eating, swimming, having a jolly good time and then out of the blue (sorry, no pun intended), they will just kick the bucket :cry: I too recommend trying to find one that is already established.

hmmmm

well after reading this I am going to hold off on this. I am waiting for my new tank to arrive. Once it gets here I will have to swap everything from my current set up. Not going to cause the stress on this fish.
