    Go to see the fish in a fish store. And end up walking into a tardis, and Joey, you’ve got new ideas, new systems, tricks and tips to implement into your gallery for years if not decades to come, all through a chance meet-up with the genius who owns this incredible facility, as you say it’s got everything 🤷‍♂️ and then some.
    You have to go back to this store very soon, 🙏 because there is so much more to show your viewers/subscribers, this place is just mind blowing for sure. 🙏👏👍

    Wow, I loved it. I've lived in ohio all my life and have been keeping fish for 45 years and have 12 tanks, but i never knew about this store. I saw a video recently about this place on Ohio Fish Rescue. I was amazed that this place has everything for the fish hobbiest. I'm glad you interviewed the store owner. What an intelligent man, his knowledge is irreplaceable. Thanks, joey. i will definitely make a special trip out there. I guess it takes a guy from Canada to show me what's in my own backyard. Thanks again, joey. I'm a big fan of yours. Your enthusiasm for fish keeping and knowledge is also very important to keeping these wonderful creatures in a safe and healthy way to respect their lives each and every day. Thanks, brother. Just loved it!

    There is store near me, I class it as my "local" now, that when you first walk in, has the standard dry goods, tanks, filters, decor etc, but when you take a few steps further forward and start looking at the live stock you see all sorts of insane things.
    The hobby in the UK is nowhere near as established as you guys in the US/Canada have it, but this place has certificates from everything you can imagine plastered in little hidey holes.
    Certificates from OATA for being the best family owned aquarium store in the UK.
    Multiple certificates from Cichlid (both SA, Central, and African, but these guys used to specialise in Africans) breeding.
    The old man owner (who died a couple years ago and passed the business on RIP) had been in the hobby all his life, now his family carry on his legacy.
    I've returned full set ups worth of fish (A full male African Peacock stocking) to them, I didn't want anything for it, I was moving/selling tanks up, and they gave me store credit/discount for life.
    I've argued the difference between my favourite Africans with them (Neolamprologus Brichardi vs Neolamprologus Pulcher) and was happily proven wrong by them.
    One of the only fish stores I've been to that strike the balance of "need to make money selling fish" , and "need to give REAL, TRUTHFUL, MEANINGFUL advice on advanced set ups for advanced hobbyists, or people who will stay in the hobby".
    By this, I mean they will sell you 10 Neons for your 60l tank, but they will tell you it is overstocked/not ideal. They will sell you a cheap comet/fancy goldfish for a 60l + tank, but explicitly tell you that goldfish live decades longer than people think, and they need tanks several orders of magnitude larger than people think long term, my favourite comment from the old owners son (who I think owns the place now) was that he wouldn't ever keep goldfish in typical home tank, because they should be in a pond, or a pond sized tank.
    I have been in the hobby for decades now, and been to a lot of really bad chain stores, and pretty bad private stores. Partly down to my own experience, but also a massive part of Ferrybridge Aquatics experience and processes, I have only ever lost one fish I bought from them, and that was a Betta with dropsy which *shrug* you can't stop that with the amount of inbreeding really.
    I currently own a large 5ft x 3ft x 2ft tank with a huge 12"+ Oscar, 6 wide bar, red hook, silver dollar, a Jack Dempsey, a Fire Mouth, a Turquoise Severum, an Electric Blue Acara, a Red Tail Ruby Shark, and few BN Plecs that I've sourced from these guys over the years (I've had the Oscar moving from tank to tank for at least 10 years now), and the worst thing that ever happened to this tank was a small Ich outbreak that I fixed in less than two weeks with heat and salt.
    I once found myself without a tank during a house move because of a pretty catastrophic accident, and these guys held my fish in their own houses for me until I was sorted.
    A good quality, hobby based, passionate local store is invaluable, I've had so many interactions and conversations with these people that have made my hobby an absolute pleasure, they are worth their weight in gold.
    P.S. Joey, I've seen your shorts with Big Rich from Ohio Fish Rescue. You need to do a lot more of those! Convince him you need to swim with the Arapaima, I would pay boxing PPV money to see you waist deep in that monster pool/pond.

    If you're ever in buffalo we have a few really amazing aquarium stores the biggest one I like is the fish place in north Tonawanda they have a huge selection and I mostly go to see the giant red tail they have in a 1500 gallon aquarium, mystic blue aquarium specializes in breeding flowerhorns and reefs as well as some very high quality arrowana. Niagara aquarium Co is pretty cool too definitely more of a gallery layout. I really like this local nursery and pond company called arbordale nursery and KA ponds they make some very beautiful water features. Definitely worth a day trip to buffalo for some wings and to check out some shops. And I mean they are the most friendly people who run these stores
