Maryland LFS

[DrZacharyus]

Any good fish stores in Maryland. Going to H20 show at the end of sept, was wondering if there are any good stores that carry those UNIQUE fish that cant be found most other places. THANKS.

yeah try aquarium center oh yeah my fav , also try house of tropicals
hey dude also do you know what happened with snake heads here after that incident theyre a big no no

 

[DrZacharyus]

I thought it was legal in MD for snakeheads now. just the channa argus was banned along with another species which I believe is channa micro...

 

[wolfcichild027]

well not all are illegal just not many stores have the balls to sell em

A lot of good LFS's here in MD.
1. Exotic Aquatics (my personal fav)
2.Tropical fish world
3. Scales (never been there but have it on reliable source they are great)
4. Aquarium Depot (a lil pricey but you can definitely find an oddball or two)
5. House of Tropics (not my fav for customer service but they have a good selection)
There are several other smaller stores but they are mostly hit and miss. These are your best choices if you want to spend some $$ IMHO)
Hope this helps

house of tropicals man, thats where i ship my fish back from when i go out there on vacation.

always have something worth shipping back to cali. mormyrids, tiger muskie, stingrays, aros, cichlids out the wazoo, and LOTS of pbass

I dont like house of tropicals cause they carry dyed fish. I like scales.

I say if you visit one store in MD for fish and want a selection of things visit HOT..

www.houseoftropicals.net
www.scales-tfw.com

But scales does have some nice fish other good stuff..

You won't find snakeheads of any kind at any lfs, even the kind that are supposed to be legal for sale.
