Where does everyone shop

I wondered were everyone shops, for me I get my dry goods at Premium Aquatics, Marine Depot, or Champion Lighting. Live Stock I go to Phishy Business.

I get the majority of my dry goods from Pet Solutions, my livestock from Aquariums Etc. (some from Jacks), and everything else from Ebay.

I do think it's pretty comical that nobody buys from the place that starts with a G, ends in a S and has erber somewhere inbetween. 

or maybe it's just nobody admits it :)  LOL

I'll stop in and look about once every 3-4 months as they have a large selection and pictures don't always do fish justice.  Just seen too many negative things to buy.  :o

I have bought from there, especially when I first got into the hobby and their prices were still wholesale. After they upped their prices to retail, I pretty much stopped going. Besides, if I want something from there I'll just go to the Petland in Piqua.

I used to shop there as well only because I was a newbie.  I didn't have anything to compare them to, so I didnt' know about the quality and prices being more on the negative side.  Then Scott and Joel came around and I haven't gone back.  My parents do still buy water from them and they have bought livestock, but I am pretty close to having them go elsewhere for their needs.
