Uncle Bill's has 3 locations in the South, East and West sides of Indianapolis. All 3 stores have a pretty decent selection of fishes. The staff are moderately knowledgeable, but don't take anything as gospel. I used to go to the Southern store and it was my favorite until they lost their old fish room Manager. I don't care much for the new guy in charge.
Southern Location--this store has the best variety of rare/exotic plecs. They have also gotten some hard to find freshwater puffers in the last couple of months, though they have put them all in brackish water and they haven't done very well.
Eastern Location--this store was just moved into a new, larger building. they usually has a good supply of CA/SA cichlids.
Western Location--this store has ordered from Jeff Rapp's before, though I don't know how long it has been since their last order with him. This is where I bought my 4.5-5" Astatheros robertsoni a couple years ago. I can tell you if you get a Rapp's fish from here, you'll definitely be paying for it. When I got that robertsoni, I know Jeff was selling them for $5.50 ea. and I paid $25 ea. for the 2 I bought here.
All 3 locations have your typical 'bread 'n butter' fish. These stores have a huge selection of supplies, but their prices are usually a fair bit higher than other places. They're definitely worth checking out, especially since there really isn't much else in the area. I can say that, aside from the fw puffers at the southern location, the fish at all 3 locations have always been extremely healthy.
