Local pet stores?
Do we have any local pet stores or reptile/fish experts?
Also taking recommendations for excellent vets experienced in reptiles just in case.
I have two reptiles now and a fish and I’m looking into getting more, but I need to make sure I have resources and I know I can google it but hearing from people who have been or met makes me more inclined to test the waters.

I've been looking for a local freshwater fish store since I moved here and Tulsa doesn't really have any places that are decent. I mostly stick to the internet. I find most pet store employees are pretty misinformed about fish and you need to do your own research anyway. /r/aquariums, /r/bettafish, and /r/plantedtank are great for advice and research. Also there are a lot of great channels on youtube. For plants try www.aquariumcoop.com. For live fish try ebay or aquabid.com. The weirdest thing is that there are like six local stores for saltwater! I asked one guy if he knew about a freshwater store and he told me to drive to Houston.
I need a good air pump for a 55 gallon full of guppies and starting to plant. Any recommendations?

I use the duo output breeza 100 I think it’s called from aquariumcoop.com works great. Have three filters running off it between two tanks and not a problem. Also you can adjust air flow which is really nice.
