A south ga man without a store

[mikesmith34]

He anybody know or can hep a man out with, Zoe, sps or just a good darn store with a lot of supplies. We have a small shop here in Albany. It is hit or miss very few corals. Very nice peeps help you any way they can but limited for sure.

He is old school. If he finds you have a sand bed you will get blasted about it making your tank crash.

So anybody got some good info on peeps or stores please let me know...thanx

there are a couple good stores in columbus if you ever get up this way

 

[curtismaximus]

There are some good folks around the Warner Robins / Macon area. As far as a fish store the closest one is Blue Planet in Mcdonnah. All the other good ones are in Atlanta.

I haven't been to the stores in Columbus, but I wouldn't drive to Macon/Warner Robins for any fish stores. IMHO it's not worth it. If your ever in the Jacksonville, FL area, I highly recommend BioReef for Reef life. You will need a GPS to find them because their location is away from the regular business district.

Neptune's Reef in Columbus is the best store in my neck of the woods (I'm in Lagrange ga). Good coral selection and very friendly owners.

This is very true. But there is plenty of nice reef tanks in macon and Warner Robins. The folks that own them do frag and sell. There are a lot of nice corals in this area to be fragged. Including LE corals.

id make the drive to macon/warner robins any day to do business with locals (of course i live here, and yes the stores here are not worth the drive but the local tanks are). some of the nicest people you'll meet.

I'm going to be posting up all of my zoas and birdsnests in the next few days..switching from a reef to a FOWLR (predator tank). PM me if intersted and I will work up the list of what I have to sell tonight.

I agree on the folks here in Warner Robins area (my follow reefers). I did make it to the meeting at J.B. some months back. I just didn't want another to drive any distance to come to Warner Robins / Macon to visit any of the fish stores and say "Well, that was a wasted trip!"

I really have no options unless I'm able to get some stuff from y'all. I can get plenty of fish here but corals are very few and far between. Anyone ever have some cool stuff sps or Zoe's let me know !!

Edit: Butch pm sent

Yes thanks for the clarification guys! Sorry I was not fully awake yet that morning. Great people and personal tanks in this area, not the best pet stores. I usually drive to Mcdonnah and Atlanta once a quarter.

Both MrFlameangel and myself have zoas and sps for sale a majority of the time. I'm sure others around here do as well but I have not seen their tanks in person so I wouldn't know.

And yes the community around this area is very nice and helpful.

I've been to Neptune's Reef a couple of times, but wasn't aware of another store there...what's the name of it?

Aquatic Life. They use to be in Phenix City but have recently relocated to Columbus on Veterans Pkwy.

There was a store in Tifton at one time. Tifton pet center? On magnolia street I think.
