Aquarium Advice Freak
I am again living in the town that I grew up in.....population about 20.000 and only about 50 miles up the Hudson from NY City.
I remember when I first got into Aquariums in the 1970s
There was about 4 privately owned Aquarium shops in town that had most every kind if fish that was popular Back then.
There was also a couple of pet shops that sold birds, reptile etc as well as fish..
I recently go back into aquariums after a long absence. .
Today, there is not single privately owned pet shop or aquarium shop in the entire area
All we have is a "Pet Smart" and "Petco" . both on the the out skirts of town where all the malls are........and their fish depts are jokes.
