I bought some fish from them several years ago. Great quality, but sizes were not consistant on their Victorians. Great guys to work with though. Very knowledgable and friendly.

I just walked through their store on may 8th and I was very impressed with their selection and setup. they are not finished setting up the store so some parts were still a mess and their employees were running around like a bunch of brokers on wall-street filling phone orders so I was doing my best at staying out of their way while still looking around. if you're looking for Africans, they have a lot of very very very nice fish but I didn't see anything else besides catfish. Maybe they'll get into s/a's before long although I don't think they have room. I havn't bought from them but I believe they are a very good place to buy from. From what I've heard they're about the best african cichlid place in the country. Kyle

They're just moving into the store, the company itself has been around for quite awhile. I haven't bought directly from them, but they sold a bunch of stuff at the TCA auction in April. I bought a very nice large pair of Protomelas spilonotus "Mara Rocks" and 4 Aulonocara maisoni "Chinteche". All of the fish were in excellent health and condition. The only thing I didn't like is the Aulonocara bag was marked 1m/3f and it was actually in reverse 3m/1f. Hard to complain considering how little I paid for them.

They specialize in African cichlids and cats, but carry a few others like plecos and botias, along with the usual supplies and Texas Holey Rock.
