It's been a while since I've been there (I live in Rice Lake, WI). I do,
however, remember a world of fish. This was a descent store.

I get most of my African Cichlids from a store here in Rice lake called Pets
for You. This particular store has a fairly ok selection for being in a
smaller town. I picked up a male Kenyi from there. It was mislabeled, but
I find a lot of store have that problem.

Isn't A World of Fish a big chain like Petco?

No. There may be others around but it's not a chain or related to any chain
stores.

I have probably seen a dozen in different states.....

Dude, no this is definatly not a chain store at all... it is prolly
one of the Twin Cities Metro areas "better" LFS. It is all locally
owned and like other people have said there probally are other stores
called "A World Of Fish" that are not owned by the same group today.

Im sorry if I sound like a promoter and a know it all about this
place, but I dont say things that I dont know the whole truth about
and I have talked with the owner before and he has told me that it is
all locally owned and has no other stores. Not trying to bash anyone
here just giving out what knoledge I have on the store.

I know for a fact the one in the Twin Cities is NOT a chain. There very
well could be a chain store with the same name out their, but these guys are
not a chain.

bit of a disproportionately aggresive response, don't you think?

There appears to be another store in Duluth, MN. I wonder how they got
approved for the same business name in the same state..... I guess
its coincidental....

Yes, in fact there is a store with the same name in Duluth but if you
would call them they will tell you that they have no affilation with
them.

You know, if "World of Fish" is a chain/franchise........it would not
be the end of the world of fish....... I will have to go there sometime
if I can figure out which of the 2 different street addresses and zips
for them is the one you recommend in Minneapolis. Its the same phone
though.....

I guess we have hyped with as much as we possible can.....
