  • Fish Ranch II

    Just like to say that this fish store was pretty neat! Fish time coming here was great.. The person that caught the fish that I wanted actually asked about my tank lol. Was a bit of a shocker but I liked that. Friendly people and the selection was pretty nice.. Only complaint is.. I saw a dead Festae.. :C But other than that, great experience! Will be coming back more frequently now!

    I checked out Fish Ranch II yesterday and all I can say is make sure you don't go on a hot day. We got there right after they opened and as soon as we opened the door we were hit in the face by the heat radiating out of the place. They had only been open a short while but it was very very obvious they don't have a/c as they had a portable unit behind the counter and the back door was open.

    I can look past the condition of the store itself but I don't know how you run a retail business in Houston in the middle of summer with no a/c. We stayed less than 30 minutes as I couldn't stand be in the heat any longer but I do have to say both employees were very nice and they had a nice large selection of fish and will most definitely go back to buy some once the new tank is ready but i'll make sure it's not in the middle of the day.

      That's a minor inconvenience. Tran is a great guy to deal with

        more often than not, independantly owned aquarium stores are oppressively humid around here. I have found Tran, Charles and staff to be very knowledable and price competative at FRII. There are some stores that are more comfortable inside, and the prices reflect this.

          Oh yes I agree it's just an inconvenience. I would definitely go back.

            Don't tell fish stories where people know you; but particularly, don't tell them where they know the fish.
