Comments: This pet store is privately owned and for the general idea well cared for. There are so many fish tanks, it is a little silly. Probably too much for them to completely take care of, in my opinion. The tanks that are spotted for illness are treated and not sold. They have turtles, two ponds, guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, lizards, and frogs. They have a few really big fish including a huge pacu that really needs in my opinion it's own pond. Some of the tanks might have dead fish but I haven't seen many. They do carry painted glassfish, which surprised me because the staff is fairly knowledgeable. They have a few aquarium plants to choose from, all of which have snails. I bought hornwort their and now my tank is infested, because I did not take the necessary precautions.
Lots of things are over priced. You could probably do better some where else.
Comment : This review is dated. The store hasn't had anything other than fish in a long time. Things are still overpriced. As of now (July 2006) the store is changing hands and moving, and hopefully getting a new name and a whole new outlook. The guy taking over is moving it to Cranberry Crossing in Kingston and plans to have salt water and oddball fish, including mudskippers!
He seems to realize that in order to compete with all the petsmarts and petcos that have sprung up, he'll have to offer stuff they don't have.
What with Pisces in Weymouth closing doors soon (after over 30 years of fine service to the fish-loving community! I'll miss you Frank and RD!!!), I am hoping that the guy will offer a greater variety of plants.
