Purchased 4 of these and received them separated in 2 bags. Received 3 females and 1 male, which worked great as I already have 1 male, albeit with hardly any color compared to the second batch I just received from angelfins. One of the females had signs of ich on one fin the day I received them. Began medicating the tank immediately, and on the second day, it was worse with a second female showing the same symptoms, and all 3 females became fairly sluggish. They maintained all their color through this while I was medicating daily. After 7 days, 2 females died (I believe it was the 2 shipped in the same bag. The last 2 have cleaned right up and seem to be healthy. Unfortunately now I am out a fair bit of money for these 2 fish, and now have to deal with a difficult situation with 2 males potentially harassing 1 female, but hopefully the mature plants will offer plenty of hiding if need be. So far, so good in that regard. Hope this helps.
