Comments: I visited this store in 2005 after reading about it on another site, when you first get there it doesnt look like much outside, but once you walk in those doors you definitely get the feeling that these guys have their work cut out for them. All types of fish to choose from, even those rare to find species you normaly only find online. Their reef and planted displays are truely stunning. Did I forget to mention their sharks? Wow!
 
The prices at this store are really good, you're not buying any immature baby fish here! What you would normally pay in another store for a little 1" fish you'll probably pay the same here for a medium sized one. Snowflake eels for instance, little 6" specimens go for $20 in most stores, here you'll get one thats atleast 15 - 20" for the same price. You need live foods? No problem they have live cultures! Adult brine shrimp, baby brine shrimps, blackworms, and a variety of others. The only downside to this store is getting the staffs attention, it isnt easy to get someone to get you some fish, however the reason for this is because they're always busy working! I spent 3 hours in this store and their staff was constantly working on any number of tanks at a time, wich is a very good thing if you ask me. They should deffinitely hire some folks to take care of the customers tho. lol They are very knowledgable people, check out their site to see some of the staff profiles.
 
Overall, the best fish store I've visited to date.
