Quality of Fish at PetSmart and PetCo?
WEB1,682. Mar 8, 2014. #5. I got almost all my fish and aquarium life from these stores.

Is this 125 gallon with stand at petsmart at good deal?
WEB252. Dec 13, 2016. #5. I got their 60 gallon deal for $199. The stand IS cheap. It does the job, but I'd recommend taking care with water around it. My canister filter sits on a plastic tray, that has a 1 inch lip all around, so minimal spillage is caught. I also found the base to be 'unsteady' I braced it to wall (on a stud) to stabilize it.
Any reason to avoid Petsmart's Top Fin glass aquariums?
