| This guy is my home boy he's a hell of a retailer..all around good guy, great prices, knows his stuff and goes out of his way to accommodate my needs ... If ur in central VA and into fresh water fish this is a guy u should know..he runs,how can I say? A aquarium boutique. No store front,no muss, no fuss, no random employees just plenty of fish and supplies. I usually go by appointment and he always makes time for me. He (Rahma the owner) must have unlimited patients as well because he gladly answers my million or so questions per month, in person, on the phone even by text. I like that he deals with me like a client vs a customer. I've been dealing with him since he was delivering fish and I'm sure you'll have the same positive experience that I've had.Did I mention the great prices? |

| Go to http://www.skoolzoffish.com and check when he will be in and specials. He also places every week in Craigslist his store hours on Saturday and sometimes Sunday.

| Thanks for the link. I'd like to get over there and see what he's got in the way of central American cichlids.

| Yes he is still in operation. I was there about 3 weeks ago, and I still see his ads on CL nearly every week _________________ I was going to procrastinate today, but I will wait and do it tomorrow.

| If you follow Skoolz of Fish on facebook, you'll see he has gotten married this fall and is now on his honeymoon so he's been busy! He updates the facebook page regularly though as to what has come in. I still need to check it out now that he has "regular"hours |

| Noticed on Rama's site that he has quite a few 2 for $5 plants...
For $10 bucks you can walk out with 4 different species, not bad. _________________ -- Tracey --

Have you been there recently?
He is definetly in a "grow your business mode", we need to support him and the other independents in our area's many of whom are listed and contributors to the club.
and...... if you ask he will try to get whatever you want. _________________ -- Tracey --

| Well I am pretty D@/* irritated with them.
I checked the store hours, and they should be open until 6pm on Saturdays.
I drove all the way down there with my son and they were closed up.
It was a crappy part of town, the building looked abandoned, and the only clue that they were ever there is a canvas sign about 2' x 3' on the side of the building that is faded and flapping in the breeze.
I will not be going back, good luck staying in business with a retail model like that. _________________ 55 Gallon Freshwater Community Tank (semi-planted) 48"x21"x13" 20 Gallon Long Freshwater Community Tank (semi-planted) 30"x12"x13"
