Lucky. Our Petsmart and Wal-Mart have pretty bad fish. Our Petco still isnt good but they are better. I'm still waiting on a yes or no from the parents so I don't even know if I'm getting a tank yet so consider yourself lucky anyway, unless your an adult. Then it doesnt matter cause you can do whatever you want. With some limitations. =)

Usually those limitations are money.

CWC and myself want to buy a 12,000 sq foot building to set up our fishstore in.

We are lacking the 250,000$ they want to sell the place.

But we are hoping in a few years to have it saved back so we can buy this building.

Let me know when you do that. I'll make the 10 hour drive up your way to buy some fishies I mean, I guess I could still come buy some fish from you...but it wouldn't be the same as if you had a store.

Yeah, just 110 fish tanks, hehehehe.

I expect us to have several hundred in our shop.

The swordtails are definately very pretty fish. And since most of them stay fairly small (compaired to some of the fish wal-mart or petco sells... *cough cough* pacu *cough cough*) they are the perfect fish for people who don't wanna do the guppy,mollie,platy thing.

Best of luck on getting the pretty ones and having them thrive in your tanks.
