People will believe what they want on the internet and are free to make their own choices. I am just offering my direct experience with these fish, because I know they are not well known. I found out about them after my own research on the internet and other people's experiences as well.

I am also a strong believer in the hypo QT routine, and if people are not willing to make that commitment, then they should not buy these fish (or any other for that matter).

I will say, though, that I have had a total of 5 Pearlscales over time, and all of them were the same, so it was not a one-off. I have also tried many of the other popular control methods, and this is the only one that worked long term for me. Plus I have a couple of peaceful, beautiful fish additions to my tanks.
