I think Aquarium Adventure is the best fish store in America. Not only do they have a variety fish species and tank sizes, stands, all kinds of equipment ..., but they also have fish species sorted according to the region from which they come (isn't that cool?). They have marine and freshwater aquaria sorted separately as well. And what's absolutely best for me: they have the majority of aquatic plants (!!!) as well as anything a planted tank would ever need. I haven't gone to that store yet; all that I talk about comes from reading their website. They are located in very few places and I must say that I am very lucky to have the store quite near me. I think, before I buy anything online for my 75 gallon tank, I'll check Aquarium Adventure as well. Even if they won't have cheaper prices than products online, I won't have to pay for shipping when I buy locally - and I'd have to spend A LOT of money on shipping alone if I were buying online (especially for the shipping of plants and nutrient-rich substrate). Not to mention how careful one has to be with plants when they're shipped a long way off - too risky.
Here is the link to the website:
. I think anyone who has this store nearby and who is a serious aquarist, absolutely SHOULD check this store out! I'm definitely going there! Just read their website and you'll know they're good. It's only enough that they DO promote cycling a tank to know they're a responsible and ethical fish store. It's rare for any local pet shop / fish store to tell you that you need to cycle the tank first before buying any fish.
LOL ... going to this fish store must be, for a crazed aquarist with MTS (myself included, lol), something like going to Six Flags (the Great Adventure rollercoaster park - anybody every been there? I love it ).
