Yes that is very true. Bad stuff can happen with anyone you buy fish from.
Rick puts up videos of his discus tanks. Several minutes on each tank so you can see the fish swimming, eating and interacting vs only in pictures.
There is more that can happen with 2-3 inch fish than just interacting that will stunt growth and shape. At this stage in their lives water quality and food quality plays the biggest role.
