It is fine to buy fish from Walmart, you just have to inspect the tanks for signs of disease. And also, don't buy fish from a tank that has alot of dead fish in them...that's not a good sign. I have bought alot of cories from Walmart, but I make sure they don't have any diseases. My local Walmart always has ich in their tanks...so I don't buy fish from there.
