Why not? Afraid we'd feed ya to those Monster Fishes? LOL.....

Hope you can make it. As for me, not looking so good since I work Saturdays, and we have a guy on vacation. But I'm still trying, lol.

Hey WyldFya...
I didn't realize they were closed on Mondays, lol. But they were just finishing up tank maintenance and feeding, and was turning the lights out when we showed up. But to show everyone else how these people are, as they were locking up, they could have said to come back when they were open. But they didn't. Instead, they said, Please Come right on in, and they turned all the lights back on, lol. Awsome people. And she said she'd even buy my baby Bolivians when they get some size, if I have a decent amount survive. It was an absolutely wonderful experience, even with the store not being real huge. But a nice selection of fish. Even a FW Ray. Can't remember exactly what she called it. She's also got several types of plecos as well, including Mangos and I think Snowballs and several others. But anyways, a wonderful experience.
One thing about Barbie, is that she is one of the biggest names in plecos I know. She knows quite a bit, and breeds a lot. She had 22 species of loricariid when I was there last.
 
Just so you all know, I checked my 10G breeder tank again, and it looks like I have well over 100 Bolivian Rams free-swimming. A rough estimate of 200 might not even be out of the question, lol. Too many to count, lol. This is my first actual success with Rams. I've had a couple survive in the past, but not over 100, lol. I think I found the trick. ;)
 
Placed the order for some umbee, dovii, bay snooks, RTGG, and a black aro. If I missed you, post it up by tomorrow at the latest.

I was going to buy some Syno Multi catfish from Barbie a while back. It didn't end up working out for me but she's real nice.

ive bought a ton of fish from midway, aro, 2 ck's, blood parrot, and numerous others. generally a good place( every fish i have bought there is healthy), but there are usually dead fish here and there in the tanks, and lately they have been shorthanded so some of their stock is "rough". but they got a 30"ish? silver aro, a big ripsaw cat:drool: , and some other large fish in a tank.
selection is pretty hit and miss, you never know what theyll have, but i trust them more than most stores.

I like midway. Good fish selection. Its a little crammed in there but their display tank with the Aro is SWEET!!!

I just bought some salties from them (not the greatest saltwater collection but... I got some great fish). All I have room for right now is saltwater. I'm going to do some rearranging and pic up some more fresh water monsters soon.

Good shop though. I saved a koi there that jumped out of there out door pond section once.

You going to sell them off?? That is a lot to sell! Congrats.

Yup, I plan to sell most of them. Will probably keep about 6-8, and sell the rest.

wish it was my black aro, If my plans for building a 375g would have worked out I would be ordering Two Rays, 4 black aro's, and one silver. I have the money to build the tank. but theres no room for it to go.

I think I might be doing a SW tank soon, I've always wanted to, but never got around to doing so.
