As for the inventory, most of the places are ordering from the same sources, which you could see with everyone having the same, or similar, type of fish. So for the most part it's really what is available from suppliers that dictates their inventory.
That is true to a extent. There were fish I didn't notice or see on some lfs sales or at there store but then other stores i did notice them. For example no one had or got Achilles in but one store did as well as chevrons

It's very possible that the Achilles and Chevrons that they had were from before or the supplier had a very limited amount, so only a select few got them. Neither of these fish are rare or delicate where a LFS wouldn't had brought them in, unless the price was very very expense but even then it probably wouldn't have been an issue. Once again it most likely came down to what was available.
Most all lfs get their fish from the same sources. Not every store uses the same exact source at the same exact time. Most new avenues of new sources turn out to be more trouble, and less reliable than they're worth. If there's only a small amount of a certain fish, like a chevron or Achilles collected, not every lfs can get them, even if you want them all to have some so you can shop around for who will give you the best price

Unfortunately I don't have a qt tank. Newbie mistake also just dont want to run another system. I have copper in my tank hopefully it will kill everything off with prazipro as well.
If these does become a problem I'm going to have to run a qt.
Do you guys use a 10 qt or 40g?

My set up consists of a 72 gallon bow that I put fish in for observation if I'm buying a few larger sized fish. If I notice anything I then have a 20 gallon long that I use for treatment. My treatment of choice now is chloroquine phosphate as well as prazipro but not used together. I might downsize a little and get a 40 breeder but then again there's only 3 or 4 more fish I'm looking to get

Actually it's very common for people to discuss what is alive, or sick, then when things die. Usually when something dies the person will go silent about it. I understand why, outside of the money, people don't like to buy something that they really wanted and just have it die.

I don't think fish deaths is that serious. I understand someone being upset about how much money they spent and a fish dying but it's not like anyone on this thread asked anyone where they bought the fish. It was just a couple weeks back we had a thread going on how bad and unsafe it was to buy fish same day BUT Black Friday comes around and we all do it. I'm 1,000% positive myself and the other guy who had a death were not the only 2
With the amount of fish disease parasites out there. It is worth it to qt regardless of where/when you get a fish. I never did until I got burned. Lost every fish I owned. A 20 gallon bb tank with pvc heater and powerhead are is all you really need.

I run a Hob filter too. Also ammonia badge so you can visually check the ammonia level just in case it gets too high helps too.
