Hello Everyone

Thinking about planning a trip down to Seattle in the future..
Anyone can recommend any good salt water aquatic shops in Seattle?
Last time I went I only found one and it was really small.

Thanks guys

The only one I would recommend is Barrier Reef in Renton. Premo sps frags.Worth checking out.Look up their website. I didn't know how spoiled we are up here until I checked out half a dozen stores down there. They have 7 times the population so I figured 7 times the stores and quality but IMO I was wrong.

I went to the one in the China Town area, can't recall the name... I wasn't impressed with that one, so if you have limited time, avoid it.

I have been to Barrier Reef. It is tiny - pretty well a basement storage room in a Mini Mall.

I'd only stop in if you were going to the Fry's Electronics down the road - Now there's a store.

Barrier is small but it was the only good one that I went to. Pinhead do you know of any good LFS down there as I wouldn't mind going back for another look.

I have only been to Barrier too
It was quite nice for such a small spaced store
They offered some fish that I havent seen once in Vancouver
and price are considerably cheaper than here.
They gave me a big box and a styrofoam box for my fish on my way back.

A funny thing, I looked up on google before i went last year,
found this other store thats about 15minutes away from Barrier,
I ended up in some residential area and it was a bluff
damn. forgot what it is :/
