![]() As a newb, we've been to all the stores except for riverfront.
My experiences... Wais-first corals from there, very pricey but all are doing very well. He will upsell additives, food and stuff not necessary. Danny has been very helpful with me and my system at times, and I have just learned to keep things in perspective. His lps corals are quite awesome, just pricey. Oh and I need to know my fish before going there as everything fits in a 55 gl reef tank...box fish, angels.... Ocean city-just started buying a few things in the last while, but great service, busy store, good selection on fish and corals. Red coral-incredible service. Kevin is awesome to deal with. He did the same for me with sps, I've got a small birds nest frag he just gave to me to see how it does in my tank. I had picked out 3 sps that I was just going to buy and he said nope, not yet. Big ALS, Josh, Ryan and Meagan are great to deal with. Picses, mixed on this. The manager of the sw section is very helpful and went above and beyond when I had an issue with a ph. Good fish selection lots of varieties, not so much with the corals. My 0.02 as a newb! |

![]() Picses - over price livestock, corals and hardware, awesome service but not very knowledgeable unless you talk to a manager
Big Als - over price for sure on everything, small selection of livestocks and corals, but great customer service. Wai's- he has some of the nicest corals in town but its pricey. pushy to sell customers things they dont really need Ocean city - love this place, the owner is super nice and helpful. in it for the hobby not to scam your money. Golds- i only go here for cheap corals other then that, service is ..ok Red Coral - awesome place, best selection of everything IMO. from rare sps to lps and fish. kevin is super nice and helpful the whoel team there is super customer friendly and not to steal your money. oceans, red coral and golds r the only ones actually worth spending your money on, from my exp |

![]() ......O and dont even get me started on riverfront... is that a fishstore or they running a meth lab at the back? sure looks like anything but a decent fish store.
I still remember when i was a little kid tagging alone with my dad to riverfront when they were still in DT where Bookers is right now. back then they were the best LFS they had everything, amazing corals and fish selection but now..... practically no service at all, hardly any SW fish selection and if any corals that they have.... its half dead. all tanks r dirty , its just a big mess in there. I dont want to bash a local business but.. they will never earn my $$. If anything its more of a reptile store then fish. |
