Thanks for the info Fuze

How much are shrimp? And no pygmys? I was gonna go to the city this weekend if they had any... but ember Tetras is a good price though

FYI:
fishtown u.s.a. up in mahwah has pygmae cories... Give them a call to check though before you make a trip out.

Yup....almost every time I've gone. 2 for $7.

And I've seen them in Ridgewood Aquarium as well. I think $2.99.....can't remember for sure.

They had panda cories, no pygmy.

Pacific has boat loads of plants but like fuze said - they are not cheap. Nothing is particularly cheap at Pacific. But their selection is second to none.

*sniff* I still want chilis ... BAD chibi! No more fish!

[furnfins]

If you had to go to Fishtown USA, which one, NJ or Queens? Have to make up my mind quickly or my husband won't go! I've been to Queens last year nice place and good selection of plants at the time. What else is near Fishtown NJ?

[eeng168]

I just came back from fish town USA...tank full of Pygmy corys!!! bought 12 more.

1.99 or 3 for 5.50

They also had pencilfish, 3 for 8.50
Amano shrimps, 3 for $7

Ridgewood aquarium, Pet goods (also on Route 17), Route 4 aquarium and then Absolutely fish a few minutes away. This has been our usual tour route when there... all a few minutes away from oneanother.

In terms of choices of selection I would choose the fish town in NJ. They have a biggest selection of fishes including plants, but the plants I bought there last time had a lot of snails, scuds,etc.

The one in queens is more clean.

Pickup the tank & ADA soils from Ridgewood aquarium last week, nice guys, good stuffs with fair price.
Stop by fish town in NJ, almost carry same stuffs as fish town in Queens. Are they same owner ??
