All the stores are great to have in the valley. Each having it's own supporters and one's opposed is healthy competition in my own view. Partial to ATR myself, but I shop them all.

I agree no meds in display and leave the inverts. Your FOWLR would quickly become FOWR. Wait it out, try and boost your fish in qt with garlic extreme/ vit. C.

Velvet is a cruel disease, by the time it's discovered it's usually too late. Were these fish relatively new? Where did you get them? Don't be too hard on yourself, I know how you feel.
