Ugh. Went in my local Petco yesterday, and every single goldfish and koi in the store had ick. Every goldie tank in the store has had ick in it for at least a week or two, and they JUST put up a sign saying that they weren't currently for sale. (I guess that's because even an idiot knows a fish with no fins is sick)
I can understand temporarily overcrowding species that can handle it, but they should really be more conscientious of the fish. That sort of stress just kills them.

Speaking of how they house geckos; what is the deal with sand? I've never kept them so idk, but I've always heard that sand was a no-no unless you feed them in a separate container or tong-feed or something.
Just wondering what the protocol on that was out of curiosity.
