  • Good place to buy adult male peacocks?

    What LFS's have a good stock of adult male peacocks, preferably on the Southwest side of Houston?

    I know Fish Gallery has them, but they're prices are very high so I'd like to go there as a last resort. Ultimate on the north side has a great selection, but they're a long way from here. Is there any other LFS closer with a good selection?

      I haven't gone to City Pets in a long time. The last time I went to Extreme Fish, I was disappointed in their selection, but it's been awhile. I haven't bought new cichlids in almost 2 years which is why I'm not sure what's out there anymore.

      Have you been to both stores recently? Any idea what they're stock is looking like now?

        I have been to city pets alot and the last time I was in they had quite a few I would have bought if I would have had room.

        Extreme fish I have only heard about. I have never been, but I have heard they have alot of cichlids.

        Fish gallery is kinda a far drive for me as well, I just haven't been impressed the last couple of times I've gone in and seen alot of dead fish.

                  I have a very old 3 megapixel camera that I use, but it has a bracket feature that takes 3-5 pics in a row with different exposures. That helps me get a decent pic. From there, I just sit in front of the tank and take a zillion pics, hoping to get a few good ones.

                    Very cool. I really need to get my cannon out with my macro lens and see what I can get.

                      I bet you can get some really nice shots with that setup!
