The reef probably has the bigger selection, and healthiest. Aquarium is pretty overpriced, i only buy a few things there equipment wise that i cant find anywhere else. Aquatic has a nice selection of fish and corals and reasonably priced equipment.

The Coral Reef and Aquatic Marine are the two best stores to visit. Both will be at the swap, The Coral Reef's Parent Company Sustainable Aquatics will have fish for sale at the swap.

That's good to hear. I was hoping all three would be there. Any idea what they may have there?

Last time I was at the Coral Reef they said they were not going to be at the swap, but Sustainable Aquatics was. I wonder if they changed their mind?

No I was not aware that the Reef was not going to be there, who and when did you speak to and when did this happen?

I talked to amy a couple days ago. I think she said they would be there, but she could have meant sustainable. i dunno why they wouldn't bring some coral. they got a ton of bali acros in.

Thanks, I'm going to email Matt to find out directly.

Just confirmed with Matt from SA they will have both corals and fish. He did state that they are not going to bring "an enormous amount" of corals. I will let him know that clams have been requested.
