LFS Props!!

I thought it would be good to start a thread about good LFS's. Since I am from the Houston, TX area (SW side) I am going to recommend

T&T Fish and Reptile
6862 Highway 6 (@ Bellaire Blvd)
Phone: 281-933-3367
Houston, TX
Website: www.ttfishreptile.com

This place has been very good to me for years. They have a lot of knowledge and they have absolutely amazing display tanks in the store.

Just reply with your favorite LFS and maybe another member that lives in the same area as you will visit that store and give them business. A lot of folks do online shopping, but I just felt that it would be good to give our favorite LFS's some props.

Thanks

Boise ID - none...... well we only have one left petco and zamzows included. i dont count those. the only LFS that you can go to here is not that great. but i dont hate it i just go to get what i need and get out.

Boise ID - GARF http://www.garf.org/ support these people as much as you can. they are very knowledgable and are wonderful people. online and phone orders only now. but they are truly great people

Re: LFS Props!!

I am in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia and I would have to say Reef Chief is the best in this area. There are some other good ones but Reef Chief runs circles around most.

Re: LFS Props!!

Aquatic Critters in Nashville is hands down the best place here.The only thing I wish is that the doctors and lawyers that visit the store woundn't snatch up all the good stuff(acans,micros,blastos)before everyone else gets a chance.....leaving the brown mushrooms for the rest of us commoners.
