Big Al's Coming to Philly Area

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Lucky B*stards,
I must ask " Do the Amish really need this many fish stores?" Bring a Big Al's to Boston goddamit. One of my fondest memories as a kid was happening upon the Big Al's in Mississauga, Ontario on vacation. Spent an hour and a half there when we were on a tight schedule. :) Great store.
 
The Amish do make an electricity exception for fish, right? :)
 
Just so everyone knows, the store is no longer a Big Al's, it left the franchise, but continues to operate under a new name (captain nemo's)

It's still the same old. great stock list, iffy tank conditions. I once had a sales guy recommend some geos to me when every single one in the tank was covered in white spot. He was pointing at the things. When i pointed out that they were sick he just shrugged and moved onto something else. Why no quarantine on these tanks?

Also the kids that work there are starting to annoy me. And their preferred method of catching fish is to catch it in a small plastic tub (fine). Then they take it to the bagging station, and just tip the plastic tub upside down over the bag. Now this might work for tetra and Barbs, but it's frustrating to see them tip an angelfish that's 3" top to bottom into 1" of water. Talk about unnecessary stress.
