Hey. I might be down to the Argosy this weekend if the weather doesn't allow me to go north to detroit.. I would like to know if there are any good LFS to stop by that isn't to far away from the casinos. I am looking to buy 8"+ jardini aros. Or any other interesting fish. I.E. Lungs, BIG silver aros 24"+, albio niger cat (yeah right), Large wolf fish, or just anything odd. Maybe even some big poly.

Please let me know if your in that area and know of anyplace that may have something like what I'm looking for. If you know of one can you PM me or post here what they might have and the name of the store so I can get the number and call for pirces.

thanks guys.

I know this is almost an exact copy of my other thread but depending on the weather or where I might be able to find fish will depend on where I go. so any help would be Sweet.
 
Aquatics Exotics I think it was them who had the silver aro but it was only about 6-8". They have some small High Fin Orange Wolf about 4", I think they were like $60-70. You can call them up they are always turning big fish in and out of there. Not too many over 16". They used to have some bigger tanks for fresh, but took them down. They also have a 10,000 gal. shark tank you might want to see. There number is 513 521-5500. There address in case you want to mapquest it. 7513 Hamilton Ave, Mount Healthy, OH 45231. Not sure if its too out of the way.

Very nice. Thanks. I would love to see the shark tank. I'm going to give these guys a call this morning. that's alot. :headbang2
 
Your killing me going to all these Shop's! And i have no clue what i'm missing. lol
 
I stopped by there today to get a jardini that I saw last week and he was like 2" for $70 but they sold him a couple days ago, they have a couple of Peacock Bass and orange wolf fish in various sizes, they had a 14" lung but I didn't see him today. They do have a 7" senegal and like a 10" ornate.... They're the only store that gets any rare fish in this area. There's a Jacks Pets that had a Jar last week but he was only 2-3" as well.

Cool I am about 95% sure I will be heading this way in the morning and going to this LFS on the way home I would love to find at least one other one on the way back. So if there are any more let me know.

Aquatics is pretty much the only specialty store around here that I know of personally, there is Monfort off of Colerain Ave. they have some nice fish.Get off at the Colerain Ave exit, I think its 33, and go south, that means turn left if you are going west on 275, and right if you are going east. Follow colerain all the way down, you will pass Ronald Reagan hwy, and enter Mt. airy, or Mt. scary as they call it here, and it is on the left hand side of the road right before the Kroger. :)

Went to these stores yesterday and my :"review" is in my N.W. ohio LFS rundown thread.

I might have to try to get a mod to change the name now.
