I saw that guy too. Congressional normally has good quality fish for outrageous prices, but every now and again you score an amazing deal. The staff there is very knowledgable and frendly. The previous manager was the one that got me into big fish and the store itself got me into the hobby. I can honestly say I wouldnt have fish or really any pets if it wasnt for that store.I went to congressional about a month ago and they had a 6-7 inch tigrinis cat that was very thick and healthy for $150
Im a huge fan of beltway but the rays there are pretty sketchy. I wouldnt recomend buying rays or other sensitive fish from there. The prices at beltway are hard to beat except every now and again the price is outrageous. Its like the opposite of congressional price wise.
Congressional and beltway are easily the 2 best fish store in the MD are IMO with House of tropicals being a very close 3rd
