Fish Store Alert…read more Fish Store Alert I went to the Bloomington fish trade/buy/sell looking to buy discus fish since they showed it in their flier. There were none there at all. Quite a lot of upset people. I did find some smaller fish. And met Jeff Daniels one of the members here. He suggested going to Global Exoticquatics located in Joliet.,IL. Almost a 2 hour drive but was well worth it. Talked to a super nice guy. Ended up buying $250 worth of beautiful Discus. 5 Discus at $50 each. And they are 4.5-6" in diameter. And the total was $250 paying cash. Well with the trip if you are wanting to buy fish. They have over 436 tanks and are expanding to put in more. Plus they can ship them to you! Tell them Fred from Freds FREE fish rehoming for Illinois and neighboring states, on Facebook told you about their store.

Very fair pricing. And most of the employees are very knowledgeable and if there is something they…read moreare unsure of they consult with other employees there who have more knowledge of the specific fish or coral in question. Been going here since it was owned by Lisa and called underwater world. New owners have made it a much prettier place to shop and carry even more fish and supplies now than before. Prices have also unfortunately gone up. Not sure if it's due to inflation and availability or due to the money new owner put into the store to make it what it is now. But either way still on my top 3 places in Chicago land area to get fish or coral. Keep up the great work guys.

Our pond is as beautiful, if not more beautiful than when it was first installed! Jim, the owner, is very knowledgeable about the care and maintenance of Koi fish and you can ask him anything about water treatment, troubleshooting for problems with fish, predators or algae (anything relating to pond care). We highly recommend this company for it's reliability and expertise for anyone who is looking to have a water feature or sanctuary in their backyard or business.

I brought it in to see if anyone could help me fix it and Jacob figured it out quickly and repaired it in no time at all. The quality of birdseed, suet, bird feeders and birdhouses is wonderful! The hours they are open is very helpful for people who work full-time. I am also VERY impressed that during the past fifteen years of frequenting this establishment, I have never once seen an employee on their phone wasting time. They have hired very conscientious employees and they all work very hard to keep Trellis clean and welcoming! I also appreciate the help the strong young men provide to load the heavy birdseed bags into my car.

We had tried many other "feed stores" only to find that they really only carried either bulk dog food or hay.

We bought cracked corn for the geese and local hot sauce for my dad for Father's Day.

The parking situation at Walmart had me a little confused because I don't know directions of Southwest.But I was able to find where the busses, which seemed like two would run a continuously. When dropped off, it was a short walk to get to the front to pay your entrance fee. You could use cash or credit. They had a small open field for where they did presentations. If you want to be able to sit down, I recommend coming a little early, otherwise you will either stand the whole time or you can choose to sit on the grass. It's not a very big place.So once you walk around, you kind of see all of the animals, some a little bit harder to spot. It's cool to see wolves and learn a little bit more about that them about the tigers and the bear. They also had silly safari come out to do a presentation which was really cool to be able to be up close and personal with some of the animals that they brought. They do have food that you can buy on site.If you're feeling a little hungry. We did get a raffle ticket, but I have no idea when the raffle was happening as we didn't stay all day .But overall, it was a fun experience.It's so you make it what it is. You catch the bus back to the walmart parking lot where they dropped you off.

Went here for a family day and had a good experience. The bus experience was a bit tricky since it…read morewasn't clear to me which part of the enormous parking lot was the southwest side, however it was a bit more apparent when I saw lines forming after 10:00. When going there and back, it seems like there were 2 busses making frequent trips, so the wait was fairly short for the shuttle. The process of getting in was fairly quick and efficient, with separate lines for cash and credit. Near the entrance, there was a large space for watching presentations, which were fairly well done -- similar to what I've seen at other similar shows. It would have been nice to have some more bench seating, but this seemed sufficient -- with most patrons standing and some sitting down on the grass. The remainder of the facility featured animals scattered throughout different cages, and some chickens running around throughout the farm. During my visit, many of them were resting though at times they would walk around slowly. Some of the smaller animals were a bit more difficult to spot as they would blend into their surroundings. Overall, a fun experience and one of the few spots in the midwest where you'll be able to see several wolves together like this (I believe Wolf Park in Indiana and Brookfield Zoo are the other ones nearby Chicago - with other options in Ohio, Minnesota, and Missouri for a slightly longer trip).
