I've been having bad luck with CPDs. I got a group of 15 2 weeks ago from a LFS, and they all died within 2 days. I just got another group of 15 yesterday and all but one has died. How do I keep these alive?

Some background:

The first group didn't look great at the fish store before buying them. Clamped fins and poor color. I shouldn't have bought them.

The second group looked much better. Better color, non-clamped fins, and more natural swimming behavior. I did a drip acclimation over about 1.5 hours.

This 20 gallon tank and filter have been running for almost 4 years. Water tests well: 7pH, 0ppm Ammonia, 0ppm Nitrite, ~5ppm Nitrite. Temp: 76F. Nicely planted with red-root floaters,

I don't see many Yoyo loaches around here, so I thought I would post mine. They're super fun fish. Either flying around the tank or playing dead on the bottom. The big guy here is almost 6" at just one year old.

I haven't seen a post about this and I'm curious what reddit thinks.

Religion is a HUGE part of why gay people receive so much hate and bullshit.

Does this make me as bad as the Christians who can't imagine the idea of life without their god? I grew up in a relaxed catholic family and through middle school and high school the whole idea of god just seemed to get more and more ridiculous to me. Now I think religion is bad and hinders free thinking.. Just curious what other people think.
