A pet store located inside the Nittany Mall is shutting its doors after nine years of business. Finatics Aquarium & Pet Center has announced that it will be closing, marking the end of an era for pet enthusiasts in the area. The store has been a popular destination for pet owners, offering a wide range of products and services, including fish tanks, pet supplies, and even live animals.
The decision to close comes amid various challenges faced by retail businesses, particularly in shopping malls where foot traffic has declined in recent years. Customers have expressed their sadness at the news, with many sharing fond memories of visiting the store.
Finatics Aquarium & Pet Center plans to hold a clearance sale to help reduce remaining inventory before officially closing its doors. The closure will leave a noticeable gap in the local pet community, as residents seek alternatives for their pet care needs.
