vaquero said:there are a few but i haven't gone to a lot of them. There is one in marysville that i really like. Of course you have Petsmart's and Petco, but I don't go to Petco for fish..too many there with visible Ich or mouth rot. I have heard of a good one in Issaquah and renton but can't remember their names. DO NOT GO TO Little Amazon in shoreline, There fish and return policies are stupid and the tanks the fish are in are really dirty and smelly. Sorry I'm not much help
vaquero said:Where you living? I'm in Everett but work in Shoreline area. Tell me about your tank. I just have had bad visits at Petco for fish. The fish's tails are all clumped together and I have seen many dead fish in tanks that I had thought about buying, but I vow NEVER to buy a fish that has dead ones in it. That could be signs of some bad mojo in the tank. And I have seen white spots on a lot of their fish, so I don't buy fish from there.
vaquero said:You need a bigger tank!!! Just kidding, I started there and now I'm up to a 55 Gallon. Petsmart in Lynnwood is a great store. I don't know of any in MLT. My wife works in MLT and I haven't seen any there. I have 3 Bala sharks, 3 Silver Dollars, 4 Angel Fish, 4 Three spot Gouramis, and 2 Stripped Raphael Catfish. I really enjoy it, I just went out and bought a new Marine Land LED hood light and more plants.
vaquero said:Yep need the room for tanks, I am in the market for one more, although my wife isn't LOL!!
Wonder how I can sneak it in without her knowing????? Any suggestions??
vaquero said:um actually I'm try to get pics right now, ill post them here when i get a good one. Friggin fish keep moving!!! And ya I'm trying to get a "natural" planted look.

He's a nice guy, his house is cramped but his fish are beautiful, healthy and super CHEAP. You can call and tell him what your looking for or just go see his fish room. PM me if you want his number. There's Denny's pet world in kirkland.
