My lfs currently has a Freshwater Stingray! Not really a fish but super cool.... They usually have one or another unusual or expensive fish.

Re: who has seen a really rare fish at a pet store

wow cool, i was at this familt run fish store about three years ago, and they had this hugs tank with a turkey fish in it. Actually I think this fish is classififed as a exotic animal thats not supposed to be for sale

ps..i made a new topic about the same by accident so moderators might want to get rid of it

An LFS near my home that is run by a privately owned store (vs. PetCo or Pet Smart) Has an Arrowanna. It's scary looking but cool.
