CBB are not an easy fish to keep. The main problem is getting them to eat. I would not buy it until the ick is gone. Even then I would use a quarantine tank as it could come back when you buy the fish.

Yes , I understand the problems with getting them to eat. This fish is apparently eating frozen mysis( I havent witnessed it yet but will before I take it/ if I take it).
Planning on QT for 6 weeks, if no signs of Ick after 4 I'd start adding some rocks etc.

When I got my CBB at first it did not eat anything, not even mysis.....but if you dont have clams you can feed it finely cut up clam meat....mine went nuts for it on its 3rd day with out eating. Ive had him now for 1.5 years and its big and fat!
The reason I mention the clam is now he loves the taste of clam meat and every clam i put into my tank it starts to pick at it, then I have to move it to my wifes tank....she now has 3 of them...lol
