Bought a ghost knife fish, a week later 4 of my fish have died of ich and two of the survivors currently have it. Never buying from here again they sell diseased fish

Bought a hamster from here a few weeks ago. Had no idea the hamster was pregnant, was not told anything about it. I asked if the shop would be willing to take the baby hamsters once they were ready to be separated and they said yes. I have taken care of the mom and the babies for the past few weeks now and was going to bring in the babies today but now they told me they cannot and did not offer any help with it either. I know mistakes happen, but this situation was handled poorly. In response to the reply below, I suggest that the shop inspect the hamsters before selling them and properly inform the customer. This would solve your "no space" situation for the future because no one would be accidentally buying pregnant hamsters.

I have been going to this pet store for fish since I was a little child I am now 46 years old I've never really went to any other pet shop but this one or fish after recently visiting some other pet shops in the city I have come to find out Tongs prices are much higher and neighboring pet shops that tanks aren't as clean and the selection of unique fish and scarce some of their tanks look cloudy and dirty just to name a few. I will still stop in to tongs from time to time to see if their selection has gotten better and if their prices have gotten better especially for the African cichlids. What I want good African cichlids I go to Tokyo aquarium on Adams. Great prices great African cichlid collection.

Can you do the vaccination for ferret?

Peter shen | Sep 7, 2020
charles michael cain | Sep 7, 2020

I'm not sure whether they do vaccinations for ferrets due to that species being illegal in California. I would look into the Sierra Club since they are/have petitioned to legalize domestic ferrets in California. Hope this helps...
