I own an aquarium shop, specializing in more unusual freshwater and marine fish. Also run an aquarium maintenance service in offices, etc. Sell pond koi and supplies for the summer season, and have a fair amount of reptiles as well. Been doing this for 30 years now, my wife and I run the store with a few employees, one of the last "Mom and Pop" businesses to survive in the world of Walmarts, Petcos, and the Internet!

Hey Mike...I live down the road from you in Sammamish....I work for the State of Washington as a Consultant. I License and do Complaint Investigations for the King County boarding homes. Almost lost out on this job because my female boss later told me she was worried I was too "intimidating looking" to work for the public!!! I guess they just ain't used to us freedom loving biker types! But the outward appearance works in my favor...I get results!
