    Yesterday was the fist time ive been in this store and it was amazing seeing at least 700 tanks in the store with fish.I looked at the discus and they wernt as good as aquaworld discus.The store had a lot of clown loaches from 1 inch to 8 inches.They had some nice african chilids and plecos.I saw some fish i always wanted like archerfish and scats for decent prices.There saltwater selection was huge and had some colorful fish.There products like food and plants were cheaper then petco and petsmart.

    I Rate this store 4 fishes
    :D :D :D :D

    I'd actually rate this store a 2.5 fish out of 5. They do have a pretty large saltwater stock and had some nice looking fish. Their Cichlid choices were very limited though.

    Their general freshwater fish weren't bad. They had a few that I didn't see very often or ever before.

    Their staff can be rude at times. I have had two guys that had been very helpful but the ladies at the checkout, man are they moody looking.

    LoL, they were moody every single time I went in there. I tried to be talkative with them but they didn't say two words to me. Especially that girl with the dyed hair, is she still there ? The older lady never spoke from what I can remember.

    Speaking of craigslist, there were two ladies here in wilmington selling breast milk to new mothers, people with breast milk fetishes, and any other sick f~ck that wants someone elses breast milk.
