Awesome fish stores!


Well with all the bad stuff going on with some of the local fish stores I have to say some good things....

In the past couple of days I have went to 5 LFS and I have absolutly no comlpants about any of them.

Yesterday I went to optimium aquarium, I have to say there frag set up is amazing, Like how the tanks are run. I didnt end up buying anything from them but I would have to say I would if I were looking for something they had.
Then I went to Marine Fish, I have been there before but man that place is great. There stuff is kind of pricie but im sure its well worth it.
Then the last store we went to which I have to say was my favorite was Cap bay.. I dont know what anyone could see wrong with that place... There prices are amazing, and rival some online vendors I look at. I loved it!

Today I ended up hitting up Nemo Fish, which is always a treat. There Corals have blown up, Now they have two tanks full of stuff. One was completly empty, but when they get there shipment in its going to be fantastic. I also ended up going by The Avairium. Now I know I have said bad things about them in the past but they are doing great! Prices are droping the customer service is getting so much better and what they carry is growing also. I ended up getting a Hammer from them. It had 3 heads on it, and it was really big. I traded them some zoos and a couple mushrooms so I ended up only paying 10 bucks for it. I mean you cant beat that!

But Im really starting to understand what people mean when they say were lucky to have so many great LFS in atlanta. Its true we really do have so many great stores.. The crazy thing is that There are tons more out there.

Don't forget at Marine Fish I think you get 30% off livestock if you are an ARC member. That is quite a savings.

Yep, initially i thought they were high too, but when toss in 30% on livestock, that is online pricing for livestock you SEE and are usually larger than what would get online.
