I got tired of working for the "man" and am looking into starting my
own freshwater aquarium store. I was wondering if anyone knew where a
good source of financial information might be found. I think I've
figured out the initial costs but regarding the potential profits and
growth would be appreciated. Also any advice on how best to proceed
from anyone with experience would be apprecatiated as well.
Thanks

Actually where are you based?
Can prob give you a better local heads up.

As an added note I'd like to say welcome to welcome to the salt mines, or
acid vats if your going Amazonian.
You may not be able to choose your customers, but you can do your best to
educate them and make sure they stick around in the hobby long enough to
come back.
I found the hardest thing...... the bloody hardest thing..... is politely
asking a lady to get her kiddy to stop kicking the discus tank.
And you may find yourself explaining a nitrate cycle or 2.....
