Located on Route 22

Great Store that specializes in piranhas. You can get many different species, and there are many show tanks with huge Piraya and Black Piranhas. Also has small piranhas at good prices, in case you want to grow up a nice little shoal.

They also have many other South and Central American fish, including Cichlids, Catfish, Plecos, and Characins. They usually have a few different species of stingrays as well, including a huge pearl ray. You can also get your basic community fish if thats what your looking for.

I haven't bought any equipment from them, so maybe someone can tell about their prices and what not.

Been there lots of times! Excellent selection of larger fish. Bought Golden Spilo Pirahna, pseudodoras cat, SA RedTail, Lima shovelnose, dorado, wolfish and many more from them. Fish are always in good condition and never any dead ones in tanks. Prices are fair to good. I rate it the best selction store in New Jersey! I have no affiliation to this store, just telling it like it is!

I'd Rather be hated for who I am, then be loved for who I am not!

7 Tanks
125-55-30 X 3 - 20L - 10
Pirahna,Red Terror,Lima- shovelnose,Pseudodoras Niger cat,Koi,Cetopsis,Giant Gourami,Ghost Knife,syno catfish,Jade Sleeper goby, Pacu,T.Suvattii Puffer,Albino Channel Cat, Florida Gar,Dorado,Wolffish,largemouthbass,stripedbass,redtail catfish and many more!

Interests:I have a 55Gallon currently with 1 thin bar Dat, a syno eup., 3 angels, a clown loach, and a few cory's. I kept fish as a kid but lost interest until recent years. Of all the fish I've ever had Dats are my favorite, but I do have a soft side for Syno's. My current goals as a hobbiest, as they currently stand, are as follows. 1. Set up a 260 Gallon tank 2. Get atleast 1 more Dat. I perfer a Indo but not against a Wide Bar 3. Get a Synodontis Granulosus

Hello,

First of all allow me to agree with everyone else on there selection. huge, and some stuff you wont find anywhere else - I wanted to go there to get a fish, I am from around the area. Everyone I knew told me NOT to. Thye said there fish are always sick, and they have no luck with them. Now this was told to me from several people, they did not all know each other. Since I am an idiot i didnt kisten and went off to buy my fish - I could not find it in the size i was looking for and the price was good. This fish got sick 2 days after I got home and soon spread ick thruout the tank. Killed a few of my fish before dieing itself - Ill never go buy there again - I do go every so often just to look though, there selection is great.
