I
have
been
living
with
tropical
fish
since
I
was
a
child,
and
have
lived
with
various
kinds
of
tropical
fish
for
nearly
20
years.
I
live
about
an
hour
and
a
half
by
car
from
Sapporo,
and
my
hobby
is
visiting
shops
on
my
days
off,
but
the
number
of
aqua
shops
is
decreasing
rapidly,
and
due
to
the
cost
of
airmail,
I
can
only
buy
my
favorite
creatures
in
Hokkaido
by
mail
order.
I
think
it's
becoming
difficult
to
obtain.
I'm
sure
many
Hokkaido
aquarists
have
had
the
experience
of
buying
a
large
quantity
of
living
organisms
and
having
difficulty
adjusting
their
water
levels
because
of
the
waste
of
airmail
charges.
I've
been
looking
at
Aqua
Taylors
from
time
to
time
since
it
opened,
and
when
I
first
visited,
I
wondered
if
they
could
maintain
an
aquarium
in
such
good
condition...
I
had
my
doubts,
but
the
situation
has
not
changed
since
we
opened,
and
I
can
see
that
the
staff
are
managing
the
store
properly
on
a
daily
basis.
There
are
small
shops
in
Sapporo
city,
and
I
visit
them
from
time
to
time,
but
there
are
so
few
customers
that
it's
hard
to
stay
long,
it's
difficult
to
talk
to
the
staff,
the
parking
lot
is
small,
the
prices
are
high
even
in
good
condition,
and
it's
hard
to
buy
something
before
going
home.
You
might
think
otherwise,
but
this
is
a
shop
where
you
can
casually
browse
in
a
good
way.
I
think
the
types
of
fish
are
more
popular
with
enthusiasts,
but
there
are
many
fish
that
are
affordable
enough
for
even
beginners
to
keep,
and
I
think
the
price
range
is
comparable
to
that
of
home
improvement
stores.
If
you
are
thinking
of
starting
an
aquarium,
rather
than
going
to
a
small
shop
or
home
center,
I
think
that
if
you
consult
with
us
at
this
store,
you
will
definitely
be
able
to
get
started
without
making
any
mistakes,
and
you
will
not
be
disappointed
in
terms
of
price.
Perhaps
because
the
sales
floor
is
so
large,
there
are
quite
a
lot
of
choices
when
it
comes
to
equipment,
and
I'm
sure
they'll
be
able
to
kindly
guide
you
from
setting
up
your
aquarium.
Also,
as
often
introduced
on
blogs,
Sapporo
Breed
sells
very
cheap
live
animals,
and
I
bought
several
types
of
domestically
produced
guppies,
but
the
prices
were
less
than
one-third
of
those
at
other
shops.
When
I
asked
why
it
was
so
cheap,
I
was
told
that
they
were
selling
live
animals
brought
in
by
regular
customers
for
almost
no
profit.
As
for
the
guppies,
they
were
brought
in
by
people
who
won
prizes
in
contests,
so
I
was
able
to
get
some
of
the
best
physiques
I've
ever
seen
at
other
shops,
and
the
guppies
were
exactly
the
type
I
wanted.
However,
I
was
surprised
at
how
durable
the
specimens
I
purchased
here
were,
probably
because
there
was
no
transportation...
Even
though
I
had
only
purchased
such
a
cheap
living
organism,
when
I
was
asked
how
long
it
would
take
to
carry
it,
they
filled
me
with
quite
a
lot
of
water,
provided
me
with
styrofoam
and
hand
warmers,
and
packed
it
in
the
same
way
as
if
I
were
buying
a
living
organism
online.I
was
surprised.
I
did.
I
have
purchased
live
animals
from
various
shops,
but
this
was
the
first
time
I
had
them
go
this
far.
It
is
a
service
that
we
would
like
you
to
continue
to
use,
as
we
do
not
mind
the
cost
of
packaging.
After
that,
the
staff
even
went
out
of
their
way
to
say
thank
you
when
I
stopped
by,
and
Aqua
Tailors
is
one
of
the
shops
I
want
to
continue
to
visit
for
a
long
time.
If
you
are
in
the
Sapporo
area
and
look
up
Aqua
Shop,
you
will
find
that
there
is
not
much
information
about
it
and
it
may
be
a
bit
difficult
to
find,
but
it
is
definitely
a
highly
recommended
shop.
