Well I just stumbled across the house of fins website and their retail store in the pics looks awesome. Can anyone tell me if they think it would be worth the 3 1/2 hour road trip to check it out.

It has to be! I just drove 6 hours across the state of washington to get home I didn't get to see one fish!!!
Were you in Seattle? They have pretty good shops but I have only been to them a few times.
 
I have driven to Chicago, which is about a 3 hour drive to pick up fish at a store there...and will be going again soon. It's worth if you know you are going to be getting something that you want and can't get anywhere else around you.

What stores do you go to? I just went to Old Town Aquarium in Chicago. That was pretty nice. I also go to Scotts Pet Store, that place is really cool. If you know any others, post em up.

The living sea..just to see what salt water fish they have, even though I don't have any salt tanks..just like to look at all their look down fish and other oddities they have.

I like going to king coral. They have a good selection and pricing on lake tang. cichlids.

This is what PM's are for guys, so you dont have to derail the thread. I'll let it slide this time.
 
Do you know what you are after? Or do you just want to browse?

Calculate the cost of gas, food and your time.. and does that amount to more than the cost of shipping a fish to your doorstep? Just a few things to think about..

If you have nothing to do, and enjoy checking out super-cool petstores, it is always worth the drive!
 
Id really just like to go and check it out, but was just lookin for a few encouraging words from someone that may have been there to check it out in person. But I stumbled across it in a search for some red tiger motaguense.
