I have a LFS in walking distance from my apartment that I visit quite frequently. I sorta feel guilty going there a lot and hardly ever buying fish there. By chance the other shop across town was better on timing when I was for instance looking for kuhli loaches and female bettas/.

Come to think of it, only fish I have from this shop currently are my clown plecos.

I dont feel bad at all I go to six lfs around me on a weekly, 2x a week, 3x a week, alot lol. And half the time I dont buy anything. I mean if they dont have anything I need, want, or just have to impulse buy at the moment thats not my fault.

no.

sometimes i dont see what i like. other times i go back to see if anything has improved, and if i still dont see what i like i walk out. sometimes it takes a little bit of time to see whats going on in each tank to make sure the store is legit.

I wouldn't worry about it unless you are endlessly bothering them with questions and then shopping elsewhere. Traffic in a store is not a bad thing, lol

I never go unless I need fish food or if am unfinished with fish stocking. I'm finished buying fish. So I rarely go.
