Best shop for Cichlid's??

[mistahoo]

If I remember correctly, aquarium world is 'texhnically' on the north side and they had a HUGE selection of cichlids when I went in last

It is, but not so huge selection of cichlids. Imo their saltwater and goldfish selection are bigger and better than the cichlid selection. They do have nice things every once in a while, but you'll be paying similar to Fish Gallery prices for most of it.

That's why Steven makes his cameo every so often at FG!

I ended up like FG selection, but Fish Land had the best prices out of the two.

I plan on visiting a few more the next time I'm in Houston.

Lol not really. Too pricey for me. Only stopped by the few times recently because I was either dropping stuff off or picking stuff up from Josh.

There aren't any good freshwater fish stores on the North side.

I agree with the dirty tanks. The 2 yellow blaze I bought from there died. I think they are better than Fish R Us, but that's not saying much. There are not good fish stores on the North side.

Really? He must've stepped it up. Last I was there (about a year ago) everything was dirty and minimal stock. Plus everything seemed like Fish Gallery prices. Ever since, I've never went back.

yes, i did get my angels from him and they are great quality. my brother got his malawi and they are good and healthy. we havent had any deaths, and the ones we had had been for other causes. the is ok with prices and since he knows me and his wife knows some of my college friend they give me better prices. he is pricey on the wild caught section. 20-40 for a cyps, throphs are about 9-14

Last time I was there prices for WC trophs and cyps were much higher than that. He was all grumpy and moody too. I'd rather not drive that far just to waste gas on higher prices. Houston Aquatics and quite a number of other stores are much cheaper and closer to me anyways.

I think Fishland has a good selection of Malawi and decent prices compared to other places. The fish quality is very good IMO. It is one of my favorite LFS thus far.

Best thing if ur looking is to just stop in some shops and see for your self wat they got and if u like th store for yourself. Some stores know whats up, and their on top, others are just kinda blah blah and dont really care.

City Pets has a great selection, worth a look see!

Pretty sure Houston Aquatics has yellow labs as well. It is a hole in the wall place but they have decently priced livestock.

ultimate fish in Spring has good quality cichilds.
