Have not either. Will have to do my homework on this

Finding information about it is proving to be difficult, I may just have to go down there and check it out for myself.

I did a google search and there was no website I could find , there was a link but it was to some kind of site where the site was under construction.
There were some reviews on yelp and another site and most seemed pretty good. Next time I head down that way I am going to stop and see whats there. If I beat you I will pass it on.

I've been there, I highly recommend it. It was one of my go-to stores and most of my go-to stores in CT have closed down. Granted I haven't been there in a while so if it sucks don't blame me

What stores did you go to here in Ct. , around me All Pets in Wallingford seems to have a pretty decent selection of fish but their supplies are a little on the high side. Of course we have Petco/Petsmart but I am very reluctant to buy livestock there so always looking.

You mention stores and one I remember well was "South Sea Aquarium" when I was a kid I used to love that place.

The only places I really liked that I think are still open are House of Fins in Greenwich, Westport Aquarium, and Slither and Swim in Stamford I think?

 

[scuba dude]

Thanks , I am thinking that a trip down that way might be in order seeing that those are 3 I have never been to and they are all in the same general direction as well as at least one more I know of on the way and sure if i looked hard enough I could find a couple more and make a day of it.
