    Its probably been over 2 or 3 years since I bought fish at a petshop so I am wondering what's the reputable shops currently?

    I am looking for:
    Harlequin Rasbora
    Red eye tetra
    Zebra Danio
    Celestial Pearl Danio/Galaxy Rasboras
    Black neon tetra
    Silvertip tetra
    Any cories that will be happy with the above tank mates.

    Tank sits at 26 to 29 degrees (during warmer summer days)

    I do not have a seperate tank to quarantine but I have an extra filter so I might have to buy a small tub if that is necessary.
