Housed in a 130,000-square-foot warehouse, their aquatics section is bigger than most fish wholesalers and has every product and fish imaginable. Cory saw all sorts of new fish like African tetras and European eels, shelves of fish books, 3D aquarium backgrounds, botanicals, outside ponds with peacocks, and more!

*What was your favorite part of Zoo Zajac? What fish or product do you wish they had in your country?*

@sghettinona 2 года назад

The refrigerators with live food in bags & tissue cultures. Also the plant section, in bags, the planted mats w/suction cups & wood with plants on, etc. Everything is so affordable. It's so incredibly clean and immaculately well organized- Fantastic! Thanks for sharing!

It's odd that we don't get anything remotely close to stores like that in the states... Especially since "we" like to brag about the biggest and best of everything.

@jonasgl3745 2 года назад

This is the largest pet store in Europe. Not only do they have fish... they have everything even farm animals. The store is located in the most densely populated region of Germany / Western and Central Europe. Which is why it keeps running without beeing a whole saler

@Ramboo0o 2 года назад

@formgeben Год назад

Farm animals? For real? 😀

@immothep101 Год назад

@exotherm42 9 месяцев назад

They also have sloth, monkeys and used to have meerkats until they had to give them up due to multiple citations and had to give them up. Also used to sell dogs and cats until it was shut down because the way they were kept wasn't up to standards. Basically the guy put his ego way above the well being of his animals. At least he barely made any money with it, small blessings I guess.

The right way of doing it is to take a scene and then take another scene. You do not want to have a sweeping movement with the camera as this is what gives you the motion sickness.

Why can't we have this level of aquarium stores here in the States? I'd spend my days off there and they'd end up with all my money... but oooooh.... it's like Disney World for Aquarium Hobbyists

@fullgratz5370 2 года назад

There are a few places like this here, but unfortunately it's not the standard of quality here. I use to have several high quality independently owned pet shops around me that were all put out of business because the average American preferred petsmart and petco.

@davidsteele2969 2 года назад

Corporate business models differ between the US and Germany/EU. In the US, it's profit over quality (based on Supreme Court rulings). Germany its a different approach to economics/business management.

@uclajd 2 года назад

@@davidsteele2969 Oh BS. A single store doesn't make any point about economics or business, and the Supreme Court has nothing to do with American free market outcomes. Obviously that local German store has a high number of enthusiasts supporting it. There are plenty of US companies based on higher quality = profit, not to mention, EVERY EUROPEAN LUXURY BRAND SELLS MORE IN THE USA THAN EUROPE. 5 miles from my house in Southern California I have SIX Swiss watch boutiques and numerous other high end brands. The American economy is extremely complex and yes, lots of it is price-driven, but that is based on consumer demand, not dUr HuR pRoFiT. Yes the average US consumer wants cheap when quality doesn't matter, which is largely driven by Amazon. But we have luxury brands too. The EU is DEAD in terms of innovation. You have 100 year old brands that dominate your stock markets. So stop popping off and stick to fish.

@ericteneyck8691 2 года назад

Having been in the hobby over 40 years (in the US), and having made a habit of visiting fish stores on my travels as well as visiting every fish store in the various cities I have lived in or near, I have never seen anything even close to being this impressive. I have seen some pretty nice stores, but nothing this cool. Even if the store has cool and unusual livestock, they are rarely carry more than 2 or 3 lines of merchandise, and then only a fraction of what a brand may produce. Seems like nearly every other country that has fish keeping hobbyist takes the hobby far more serious than the US ever has.

@stelthtenau 2 года назад

Australia is worse than the US

@sgbirch Год назад

It does make a change though. In general, the USA has the financial resources to address each special interest far more impressively than Europe.

@BukitMan Год назад

It wasn’t always that way. I have an old aquarium book that paints a different picture.

@Teddzworth 2 года назад

@southerncharmed4118 2 года назад

Not only was the store amazing, but most everything seemed affordable! The markup on stuff like aquatic plants, wood and stone here in the good ol’ US is ridiculous! I mean The Co-op has pretty good prices for their plants but I can’t go anywhere in the states and buy a huge plant like that, that wouldn’t be at least a hundred bucks!

That African tetra that Cory didn't know was Phenacogrammus aurantiacus, sometimes called the Blue Eye Congo Tetra. They are expensive. I purchased some from The Wet Spot for $25 each. They require extremely soft and acidic water, and In my experience they are not hardy at all. Cheers, Chris

@rachelverkic1340 2 года назад

My husband and I went to this store in May while in Germany visiting his family. We spent almost 4 hours in the store which felt rushed. The plumbing section for tank building was impressive, especially since we spent a great deal of time trying to find specific parts for a recent saltwater build. They have an entire huge wall with every piece of plumbing you would ever need. I was trying to talk my husband into moving back home, but it is a hard no for him after over 30 years living in the states.

@jawjagrrl 2 года назад

And here I was excited to visit a couple LFS that were over an hour away yesterday... that could fit within a fraction of the pond area of this store. The US market has a long way to go... but companies like Tetra marketing products in Europe that they don't offer in the US when they are headquartered in VA? :(

@teastan95 2 года назад

Tetras HQ is in Melle Germany.

@fischkopp1234 2 года назад

Tetra was founded in Germany in the 1950s and is still headquartered there. It may be owned by an elusive American company now, but it's still operating from Germany and focuses on the European market.

The massive piranha tank from the beginning of the video used to contain Arowana and ID sharks of close to 4ft in length. They were massive!! Then again: it’s the biggest pet store of entire Europe, if I’m not mistaken! Definitely worth the visit if you’re ever around! 🖤
