Just wanted to put a little share in here for this store. Thanks livebearer for bringing this place to my attention or I never would have known it existed.

This is a great store. Wonderful selection of mostly smaller to midsized fish with a few larger fish thrown in. They had rainbow fish, a multitude of corydoras (many I had never seen), lots of danios and small egg layer types, bettas including wild types, beautiful and unusual tetras, some discus and even stingrays. A very nicely laid out store with dry goods in the front section/room and tanks in the rear room. Quite a few tanks of fish were available and all tanks were clean and well kept. The day we visited the fish were eating zucchini. I would have liked to bring home many of the fish I saw and set up tanks for them. Specialty items like bags of peat and various leaves and cones and small quantities of planted tank additives made shopping fun. A lot of items to look at and debate over purchasing.
Prices were great. Fish were reasonably priced as were many dry goods. Some items like mid-sized bags of sand were a little higher priced but the owner was happy to share that those could be purchased elsewhere in larger quantity at a more reasonable price. It was simply that he was offering an option for those people that didn't want to buy 100lbs of sand and had done the repackaging and therefore the repricing.
The owner, Don, took a lot of time with us, helping us and answering questions. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip and visit. If you are ever in the Tri-Cities area, I would highly recommend visiting Finatics. A wonderful experience.
