Distance of fish stores
I just discovered this cool fish store right next to my local church which has everything you could possibly want, so I'm pretty chuffed about that  |

The one near me has all the basics and a pretty random fish supply.

Re: Distance of fish stores
I live in a small town, and have to travel about 30 kilometers or more to get to the nearest pet store, but it is a great place. Only thing is, I can't drive!

Re: Distance of fish stores
I guess I'm lucky to have about 10 fish shops within a 20 minute drive, but my favorite is just 2 or 3 miles down the highway.

Re: Distance of fish stores
I have a little test I like to give fish stores before I hand over any money...
first I ask them about cycling a tank, then I chat to them about common diseases
If I get the impression that they don't know what they're talking about, I don't visit them again

Re: Distance of fish stores
Thats a good system Rob
I stroll around the shop for about an hour or so depending on how big it is, and I listen about to what advice they give to their customers, the quality of their supplies, how many dead fish I see, and how many sick fish I see.

Re: Distance of fish stores
The fish store is just a few minutes away by car here -- so far it seems like a really nice shop..... though they do sell painted glassfish 
I've also got the big name pet places around as well, all with in about 10 minutes.
