Philadelphia
I live in Philly and we are being taking over by comercial enterprise ( as I'm sure all big citys are ). I had the the day off today and decided to take a ride. About 20 mins from my house in an area I'd least excpected I foud a mom and pop store that put those chain stores to shame. You would'nt believe the fish and reptiles they had and prices that could'nt be beat. I'm talkin 8 and 9 inch pleco's for $10. African cichlids sizes and colors you would of thought they grab them from one of the 3 lakes. I got some ghost shrimp for my puffers ( you can't find ghost shrimp in my area anywhere ) 10 for a $1.50. And Knowledgeable staff. Which is the best part about it. Not some 17 year old kid telling me that dwarf puffers need marine salt! Finally a place I can go to and not feel dirty when I leave.
 
:bowing: ultimate store i wish i had one of those nearby omg that would be great. my local petsmart isn't too bad but most of their staff is fairly knowledgable. never had bogus info given to me
