Is there anyplace that is good arround here? Seriously. The place I went to when I was a kid burned down. I have been to the place in Park Ridge but they sell tattooed fish there and are kinda over priced. I hate Petco/smart. eck! I have not been to Aquarium Adventure. All i do is go to the places for plants and most places have melted and algae covered plants.

Please, other Chicago and Illinios people, what is good arround here? Heck, Ill even go to NW Indiana if they have something nice. I am really frustrated with all the places I have been to arround here, and mail order is an inconvience to me because the post office hates our appartment, so I only mail order when I have to and get it sent to the parents who lives in NW Indiana.

Sorry, not in a real good mood tonite. Its hard to get some nice plants here. Now here is my thing with the place in Park Ridge, they had some Riccia on a rock in a display tank, asked the dude if i could buy it and he said plants in displays not for sale. While i was looking at the Atya Gabonensis some person asked the same question and they sold it to them. WTF.
Ocean Desing Aquarium
• Irving park RD. and Narragansett (also called Nagle)
• will special order items
• friendly staff
• Decent prices on fish and plants but high equipment prices

I have found that the have the biggest selection of plants and if you would be looking for Anubias them all ways seem to have many to chose from.
