LFS: USA & CAN

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I am going to a get-together this weekend in Rochester, NY.

Any stores around there that I should check out?

Also would like to drive over the Niagara Falls bridge - any fish stores up there on the Canadian or the US side?

I'd like to see what the selection is like on both sides, in that area. Let me know ASAP. Thanks! Feel free to PM me.

And no, I don't actually care for Asian arowanas :) But would be nice to at least see one.
 
Riverside, CA

Eliots for Pets on Magnolia, they are looking for a new building.. but they are right by the railroad tracks just north of Central. cool but small fish department, good prices, nice selection of supplies and tanks.

Fish Fantasy on Arlington just east of Van Buren. Looks like two shops.. one with live fish, the other with supplies, equipment and aquariums. Good prices and a great variety of freshwater fish, the equipment part of the shop

Good prices and a great variety of freshwater fish, the equipment part of the shop is kinda high priced, but has stuff that most of the other local shops don't.

Redlands, CA

Pet World on Hariman by Tippecanoe. good selection of fresh and saltwater fish, GREAT prices on equipment and a very good variety and selection of food frozen, freeze dried, live and almost every kind of fish kibble and flake food ever made.

These are the ones we go to the most..

Slightly out of our area are:

Total Tropical Fish in Upland.. On Foothill Ave. west of Euclid. Mostly saltwater and reef tanks, some fresh water fish, good prices but VERY young fish for sale. Lots of WELL KEPT and HEALTHY plants for reasonable prices. Very helpful owner, nice folks.

There is also a nice one in Fontana.. nice folks, clean tanks good prices, excellent selection of large aquariums and freshwater fish, very healthy. And they are interested in the welfare of the fish they sell, i take pics of the fish i bought from them in once in awhile to show them. i don't know the name of the store, but they are on Sierra right across from Kaiser.
 
Almost forgot.. Moreno Valley, CA

Exotic Tropical Fish of the World
on Perris Blvd north of Allesandro. Nice folks running the store are the parents of the guy that owns the store and knows about the fish. Any questions you have they have to call him.. VERY nice people though. First store i ever saw peacock bass in, where i fell in love with them.

Treasured Pets on Perris Blvd south of Iris. Young people, new store, looks like it's promising to become a great aquarium store. I've purchased beautiful and healthy angelfish there and they are adding a bunch of new aquariums for the saltwater fish so they can expand their freshwater fish section.
 
Nebraska pet stores

Omaha:
Aquapets - very knowledgable people working there, awesome selection of saltwater fish, some bigger freshwater fish, more plants then most stores. Very good mysis shrimp

Petland - a few oddball fish, weekly specials are difficult to pass up (ex. $.88 tetras) quite a lot of saltwater fish, they have nice tank selection and good lighting, lots of community fish.

Lincoln

Jungle exotics and aquatics - amazing selection of african cichlids, not much else.

Fishworld - lots of community fish, a few oddities, but nothing to drive far for.

The Fish Store - knowledgable people, great selection on oddballs, all the normal stuff, lots of tanks, best store i've been to so far.
