Pisces: TONS of tanks; selection-better than most; stock health-average; tanks are on seperate filters; staff-knowledge is better than average, but not stellar; dry stock selection probably the best in the city; prices are average to low; store gives good discounts to aquarium society members; also has fairly decent herp section.

Riverfront: TONS of tanks; selection is huge (with lots of uncommon stuff); stock health is average (store is an importer/wholesaler, so many fish are fresh imports); tanks on small systems; staff knowledge better than average; dry stock selection smallish, but has many unique items; prices average to low; store has now famous 2/1 sales on second Saturday of each month and gives discounts to society members and store club members; has large herp room; importer of Asian aros.

Riverfront and Pisces are two of the shops I frequent the most (along with Gold, Franco's, Tanks-Alot, and Chums), and I have purchased many, many fish there (especially at Riverfront, which is a 4 minute drive from my front door ).
