all fish water has ick in it but the fish usually have a strong enough immune system to fight it but when temperature fluctuates or the fish are week or stressed, then that is when they have tendencies to become ill, so u might want to ask how they ship their fish and ask if their temperature is normally the same, if all else fails, dont buy anything from there anymore

I know how expensive this hobby can be, but you might want to look into getting a small QT tank. Something as small as a 10 or 20 gal tank with no substrate and a single piece of pvc to hide in. Seems to be a pretty valuable thing on the board. It not only helps the fish to acclimate but provides a place to medicate if any diseases show up before moving them to your show tank.
