If you're tired of the selection of fish at the big box stores, search no further - Terre Quatics is the single best shop in the metro - or certainly the North Metro!
Knowledge & experience combine with passion for fish-keeping at Terre Quatics where you'll certainly find the most popular tropical species but more important you'll also find unique fish to enhance any tank.
Today's visit was unique as I took our 14 year old Plecostomus which joined a large tank of other ""retired"" algae eaters which spend their summers in Koi ponds and winter over at Terre Quatics. I left with a baby Bristlenose Pleco, unique for its whiskers and its appetite for algae. It is also splotched in orange color!
As for supplies - if you need it they can get it. While there may not be a huge stock of everything in the shop, most of your favorites are there.
The shop is a pleasant place to visit, chat and learn. There are a few resident birds, a cute dog and amphibians of assorted kinds. Koi swim happily in large pools, turtles glance hungrily as you approach. It's simply a fantastic place.
I very much recommend Terre Quatics to anyone in the metro. Make the drive to Champlin. You'll be glad you did!
