- I live in Bozeman, Montana and I wouldn't call it the fish capitol of the
- world!! The pet shops here are certainly far below average and VERY EXPENSIVE.
- The quality of the fish is seriously suspect and you always have to assume that
- the fish are diseased and quarantine any new purchases. It is the only
- drawback to living in the "wild west".
-
- I have seen discus breeders that will ship fist to you AND guarantee the fish
- for 30 days after they arrive (unlike the 24hr to 3 day guarantee from the pet
- stores in town!).
-
- Are there any mail order houses that will sell, and deliver, fish? I know of 6
- aquarists in Bozeman that would really like to find a better place to buy fish.
