Nah just browsing really. And they're alright. small place, nothing special honestly. they don't even really have hardly any plants there.

You know what's strange? If I want some good plants or a good selection of them, none of my LFS has any really. I have to go to Meijers to get them

zoo minsi · 12-01-2012, 12:25 PM

honestly it seems to me that shy of swords or crypts, if i want decent plans im better of buying here then wasting my time hitting up all the LFS

245Bettalover · 12-01-2012, 04:05 PM

Fantastic Fins has lots of plants

ccbeauch · 12-01-2012, 08:45 PM

I live in the Saginaw area and just posted my tank and everything in it for sale.

If you are looking for healthy plants I have A LOT of them and wouldn't mind selling them to any of you because you obviously care more about fish and the like more than the average craigslist viewer.

Thanks.

Blackheart I'm somewhat in your area and have you ever checked out Anchor Bay Aquariums? I have bought some of my plants there and have been very satisfied with them. Every time I've been in there all the workers a nice and knowledgeable. They checkout there website they have a list of plants and fish.

Blackheart · 12-05-2012, 05:42 PM

No I've never heard of them actually. Where abouts is it at? And if it's in New Baltimore and your close to New Baltimore... that's not really in my area at all lol

I don't leave in New Baltimore but here is the link that shows a map of where it's located.

I haven't been there in awhile but everytime I go in there I end up getting something. On the site it shows how the store is setup.

anyone been to Moby Dicks in waterford?

AquaPeanut · 12-06-2012, 03:59 AM

you could also add pet vendor in centerline mi

Preuss' Pets in Lansing is pretty good. Their display tanks blow me away, and they have a great selection of plecos (including an awesome L48). Their plant selection was decent, but looked a bit rough this week for some reason.

Service there is pretty slow, so don't be afraid to just grab someone if you need something. It's the only way sometimes...

zoo minsi · 12-06-2012, 12:25 PM

was out in sterling heights on monday so i tried to hit some stores out that way. Bit of a let down, 2 of the stores had gone out of business, great lakes aquariums was closed (wtf who's closed sun, mon, tues, weds) and the last one had a mediocre list of fish. best pets on dequindre was the only one open and they had so few fish in there tanks not sure why and almost no plants.

PinkRasbora · 12-06-2012, 08:22 PM

Anything near Detroit? I just moved here

zoo minsi · 12-06-2012, 09:59 PM

are you IN detroit or a suburb?

PinkRasbora · 12-06-2012, 10:05 PM
