LFS: USA & CAN

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
PLEASE do not tell me you buy your fish at Petsmart!!!!!!! The one i tried locally was HORRIBLE!!!!!! I was inexperienced and told by their AQUATICS SPECIALIST that an Oscar would be FINE with neon tetras and black skirt tetras!!!!!! I currently work at a Petco and I will never let a customer leave without proper info on care and required tank sizes!!!!!!! Not that Petcos much better before i worked there i was sold an Ich medication that killed my knife (Black Ghost Knife) because he was intollerable to something in the medication! I wouldnt be so upset but i specifically told the guy the fish i had in my tank! (Unbelievable!!!!!!!) I know that typically these corporate companies tend to have bad customer service as far as actually explaining and teaching but im not one of them! In fact my boss gets mad because i talk so long with my customers! (Our motto is the pets come first dangit!) I just refuse to allow customers to leave my store uninformed!

The Ref
 
Atlanta, Georgia area stores:

The Aviarium, in Duluth. Fairly good store, not huge and therefore not a huge selection. Better than chains though. It is close though, and its always fun to look. They also sell birds, hence the name.

Asian Tropical Fish, Chamblee. Very dim inside, and the tanks were pretty dirty. They have aros, gar, polys, etc though. Prices seemed reasonable. The guy working there didn't really know much though. They also had a ton of flowerhorns.

Aquarium Outfitters, Athens. This place has a fancy website, but it isn't as great as I thought it would be. Reasonably large, and its got a monstrous SW display...with no lights. I've been only once, and they had another large tank that was empty. I assume its normally got fish in it. They have some large CA cichlid species, but not many rare ones. There was a grammode though.

Fishfarm USA. This is the breeder guy who is on this site in the retailer section. He has tons of cichlids. Good reputation too.


If anyone knows of any others on the east side of atlanta, please tell me.
 
I am very upset I just went through 40 pages...


What's even more upsetting is that nobody live in Maine.:WTF:
