Hey~

Im looking for feedback on YOUR choice for the best place to get some rare, and or hard to find CA/SA, Dats......etc.........


Where do you go? When I was a younger man, we had Webers Aquarium in Lincolnwood/Morton Grove area......Best for Africans, EVER!

The owner was a total tool, made you pay through the a**, but damn it's a hellva lot better than paying for shipping!

So, to all of my fellow Illinois/Wisco/Indiana, MFKers.........

Where do you go?? I would travel quite a ways for a damn nice fish!

Help a brother out! :D

I Saw that post, You folks did a incredible job! I was hoping to do one like that, that would encompass the Chicago/Milwaukee area (and all inbetween!)

Besides, Milwaukee is just a suburb of Chicago anyway! (Easy, Easy,)

Top of the Line~

Thank you! I will add these to my list!!!

Rock on Dudes!
