Well, considering it might have taken you about 30-40 minutes to get home, I
have to believe there was something about the transporation exercise that
killed the fish - water temp/changes? Chloride? Water chemical problem?
Did you use the original tank water?. Did the temp have a drastic change?

I purchased some Cichlids from a guy in Miami, Fancy Koi. Five of the fish
died on the 30 mile trek home. He said he'd make good. I gave up on trying
to get it together with him after he set up a time on Friday for a Saturday
meeting. That Saturday he was no where to be found. Buyers beware.
