I agree with you 100% Greg. I'm not saying that I want the pet store to act as my quarantine tank. I've read online that it is extremely hard on fish if they are shipped to a pet store, sold in a couple of days and then taken to a new tank. The fish's chances of survival are not good because of all the moving around in a short period of time. If they are brought into a pet store for at least a couple of weeks, it gives them time to settle down. To me, it made sense.
