I'm in Missouri ( I like to pronounce it Misery...haha)!! Close to Columbia, which is about 1.5 hrs west of St. Louis on I - 70.
ShadowStryder (Don) lives near St. Louis as well.
You're not alone. . . .. I on the other hand, being stuck inbetween the two big cities, AM pretty much alone. Have to drive at least an hour either way just to find the serious fish keepers! But I'm more than happy with that! At least there is someone there now!
I live 60 miles S. of St. Louis. I work all over the city and alot around Kirkwood. Not a whole lot of great fish stores but I have a few that I have frequented for 20+ years. Is there any around the Kirkwood area that are worth going to?
I used to breed and raise Tropheus and kept Peacocks as for as Africans. Tropheus are the meansest little SOB's.
