THere are some that have their pluses, but none are close in regards to selection.

Not to speak poorly of the dead, but in recent monthsa before closing, they had declined quite a bit in selecetion. Certainly, at one point, I would have been stressed to claim any were better, but towrads the end, they were fading a bit.
Nonetheless, so many of the stores mentioned are picking up the slack.

)As far as coral selection, I have over 100 square feet of coral tanks currently running with at least 400 coral frags and colonies. I also have a wide selection of inverts, although the more rare inverts are usually sold quickly.
I never went into CBA during their height, so I can't compare their variety to mine. But, my goal is to be the coral store in Atlanta.
Thanks,
Tim

Pets Unlimited is near microcenter. It is at the corner of Powers Ferry and Delk.
Any store may have an employee that talks down to you, or at least it seems like they are. Having worked in a store, I know that it can be difficult sometimes to judge a persons knowledge, especially given that there are so many different opinions on what is right. Dont let that discourage you from a store. Just get to know someone that works there that you like (like Steve at MF) and just talk to them whenever you visit!

Derek is right about the judging part, some people have to have you explain every little thing and don't know about the wonderful site of Google/RC/ARC. But some are willing to take a little extra time and find out for themselves about it.
And I apologize now if any of you come into the store and you feel I "talked down" to you. It is very hard thing to judge when you go through so many people a day.

Yeh, and you get the people that know nothing but thing they know everything!
And then the ones that 'heard' that something-something was the way to go and they wont believe anything else.....blah blah
Or the ones that just want you to tell them every single thing to do instead of reading about it. I actually suggested to someone that was totally clueless one time that they pick up a book and read about reef keeping before purchasing the biocube they were looking at ( in what I felt was a tactful and helpful tone) and they got mad and said they'd just ask their friend that was sooooooo knowledgeable.
