Shop List! - Aquarium Advice

ferret · 10-31-2003, 10:20 AM

Let's compile a list of good shops we know of. Here's some of the shops I tend to visit and keep tabs on:

Petsmart of Highway 41, South of Windy Hill. Good people, pretty good fish. I've been going here for two years.

Petland in Kennesaw, just behind Towncenter Mall. Lots of animals in general, fun to visit, and some unique fish compared to Petsmart. Has saltwater too.

Atlantis Aquirums on Roswell Road. This place has a big selection of fish. I haven't bought from them yet but they were helpful when I was there. They did try to charge me full price for the shell of a dead snail though.

There is only one here in Savannah other then Pet Smart and that is Exotic Underworlds and its on E. Montgomery Cross road the road behind the Ogalthorpe Mall. They are expensive but they have healthy fish and the Owner is knowledgable and experienced. Its worth the trip to Savannah to see his shop and he has a website thats currently under contraction. www.exoticunderworlds.com
The owners name is Geri and hes the one to talk to!! I have never gotten a sick fish from him knock on wood!! He has both [acronym:cd28165a21="Saltwater"]SW[/acronym:cd28165a21] and [acronym:cd28165a21="Freshwater"]FW[/acronym:cd28165a21]. Oh and he will order you anything you want that he doesnt have. He even came to my house and set - up my aquarium for no extra charge!!

We have one in statesboro, Ga. He does do some sw and some fw. If he doesn't have what you want he will order it for you. But he's debating to keep selling [acronym:1644ddee5a="Saltwater"]SW[/acronym:1644ddee5a]. because theres not much of a demand in this area. I usually buy some stuff from him. He is very knowledgeable and also experienced. Its just a shame not many are doing saltwater in the surrounding area. Oh its called Pet's and People. They also groom dogs, and sell parrots.

You have GOT to go to Aquarium Showcase in Roswell, Brian the resident "guru" is quite knowledgeable, they are a bit expensive, but have all the weird stuff you can't find anywhere else. Their display aquariums appear impeccably maintained, I was thoroughly impressed, thus far the best [acronym:cc40bc2274="Local Fish Store"]lfs[/acronym:cc40bc2274] I've been to to date.

Is this a new store? I thought I knew every fish store in ATL area. Guess I'll drop by this weekend.

Mr502go · 11-15-2003, 11:58 AM

I don't think it's particularly new, as I was referred there by a friend of a long-time avid aquarist who's been in using them for quite some time. That place is AWESOME, like I said, it's a little pricey, but they have a lot of really neat stuff you won't see anywhere else.

ferret · 11-17-2003, 09:04 AM

Got an address? I searched all the phone directories and such just a month ago, so I don't have an idea where he's at.

I don't keep [acronym:37bdb87b0e="Saltwater"]SW[/acronym:37bdb87b0e], but there's an excellent store here in Newnan on Bullsboro. I think it's just called The Fish Store. All they sell is [acronym:37bdb87b0e="Saltwater"]SW[/acronym:37bdb87b0e] fish although they have an excellent selection of Koi for sale also and do ponds as well. I like stopping in there just to see the pretty fish! My bad it's The Fish Garden (just found their business card) 2236 Hwy 34 E, Newnan, GA 30265, 770-252-4022
