Oh definitely. Don't get me wrong, petsmart is good for community type fish (I got a bunch of colombian tetras for a buck each a while back) because of their common sales. It's just so rare to find anything good there. The fish in my avatar was a hybrid I found at one in the red texas tank.

Just more times than not, they have oscars, convicts, and blood parrots as the only fish other than community/lots of goldfish.

I completely agree. The salvinis I saw there were a steal, only about $2 but were discontinued after about a month. We'll see how long before they stop carrying electric blue acaras.

I like my local Petsmarts. A couple months ago I got one of those Powder/Electric Acaras. I LOVE IT!! His color is awesome and he always rolls around fins flared and all. The chick even said she liked me and gave me a coupon! That helped cause they're $25!

edit: I will say that many times them youngsters absolutely suck at netting the fish though, that drives me BONKERS!! :/

I decided to go to petsmart during lunch (thanks to this thread) They had blood parrots there for $9. There is one I am considering because it mouth is more normal and not as deformed head. All have of the BP's are the same color though they have the grey body with red throat like a grey flower horn it also had red fins like a red texas. I know all BP start out grey or black and fade to orange but are these something different. Anyone see BP bred to be the grey and red coloring.

Also the one not as deformed as a normal BP was the most aggressive in the tank.

Nope those are just BP.


I must just be really lucky with my pet smart. Ours caries tons of cichlid options including Troheous Duboisi, always have JD, 2- 3varieties of Oscar, species specific African tanks (as well as the mixed tank), They had some eels for a bit, Senegal polypterus, Green terrors, a MASS of community fish, BN plecos, an occasional rare pleco, 3 or 4 kinds of loach. Plants there leave something to be desired(never seen a snail in that tan though).

My Dempsey came from there 3-4 years ago as a baby he is now over 11 inches (got a ruler against the glass by him a couple nights ago without spooking him)
