Overall
Avoid

I've been to this shop a few times since arriving in ABQ. A few times I have bought fish; some lived and some died. The tanks are dirty, there are dead fish in some of the tanks that have clearly been there a while (at least days), and the fish are not kept in the proper conditions for their species. When I have pointed out to them that they have fish together that come from completely different water conditions (not brain surgery, like, African Cichlids pH 8, with Severums pH 6) they simply replied that "nobody in ABQ pH's their water...", which I highly doubt. Today I went in and there was a whole tank of dying puffers, with two floating on top that had decayed so badly they were unidentifiable, along with another three in various degrees of decay. The remaining alive puffers were layig listlessly on the bottom panting, probably because the water quality was atrocious and they were not in brackish water. This place should be avoided on sheer principle...let alone if you actually wanted your new fish to live.
