Pets Playhouse

I have been in there a couple times over the last couple weeks, they have done a great job getting it to look a lot cleaner, and the fish looked good.

 

Do they have the "back wall" stocked again? Those saltwater tanks have been empty and dry for a while.

 

No they took those down, supplies are there now.

 

I have missed out. I have tried to get in there the last few time I have made it up to Cr, but never had time. I really like to go in there and see what they have.

 

Thank you wallker and ray the remolding has been interesting especially since we already run on a small crew.

 

Do they have any guarantee on livestock? I didn't see anything on their website.

 

Nick has always done a great job! You dont have that many years of experience without accumulating a ton of knowledge!

 

And let's not forget Mike and Sherry ( probably spelled wrong ) Mike maintains a full time job and god only knows when Sherry gets any sleep! She's always there.

Nice job Hunt family!

 

The knowledge and ability are commonplace when you've been working a business for that long. The will to give a flying damn about doing things...especially remodeling, requires one to muster a lot of dedication and energy that seems to wax and wane. I can't wait to come see the place next time in up in CR!

 

In addition to my question above (Do they have any guarantee on livestock? I didn't see anything on their website.) I wonder if they can order is specific fish.

For example, I am looking to get a couple of ocellaris clowns and a pair of regular firefish. I would like to get them all at the same time so that I can put them into the QT at the same time. If they came in the same day over there, and they had them eating, I could take them all at the same time. But waht is the chance of that? My luck would be that if they didn't allow specific orders that I would end up with the clowns or the firefish when I went to purchase.

Maybe Nick (the other Nick) can answer.

I am in New York today for work and in Atlanta the rest of the week and the cell coverage here is terrible.

By the way, he doesn't know it, but Nick is one of the people that really helped me get back into saltwater. It goes back a couple of years when we stopped in for the first time and looked at fish for fun. He told my wife how I needed to start a tank again. It all started from there. We have spent about $1000 there over the past 1.5 years (too many pets), and yet I have not purchases a single fish from them yet and don't know their policies.

 

As with many LFS, I don't think they do offer a livestock guarantee.

 

We used to get our fish from The Fish Shack when they were in Dubuque. Maybe it was because we were in there all of the time, but they offered a 1 week guarantee on our fish purchases. We never had to use it, but it was nice to have it. I just was wondering. I will probably still make some purchases there, at least for the less expensive fish.

 

Unfortunately there is no guarantee on saltwater fish for the most part. Depending on situation I will my best to help make things right just dont tell mom or dad.

We can order fish without a problem.. Firefish are normally kept on hand. On the clowns we normally only stock false percs most of the time but can order. Unfortunately they will more then likely be wild caught. I would check with ACC to see if they have tank raised. Dont quote me but think they raise them. Last I knew they raised several types of clown.
