I was just there over the summer visiting some family and there was a guy on here who had some pretty nice stuff and a real nice set-up in his basement. He found some Southdown for me....and went out of his way to get it for me.
I'll send his info to ya...

check out:
Serdar at phishybusiness.com and
Todd at reefsystems.com

I've been to both they run their shops from out of their house both have very nice setups with nice quality livestock. Give them a call I belive are by appointment only.

You have to go see Aquarium Adventures just to say you have been there. Cool place, but they really don't treat their saltwater fish and inverts very well. Livestock is extremely overpriced. Still a neat place to see.

Serdar with Phishybusiness (a reefcentral sponser) has some amazing livestock. You have to go see him.

Thanks for all the replies. The only place thaT i had a chance to get to was Aquatic Adventures. Man is he high on his prices... $10 bucks a pound for very poor quality fiji rock, $12 for what he called Tonga... He had a pretty cool shop, the shark tank was very sweet and he had a couple of pretty big reef displays.. Fish looked unhealthy and ridiculously priced... $100 for an Orbi bat that I can here for $29... Oh well it was at least worth seeing, but those kind of shops are bad for out hobby. It scares away would be newbies... Go Buckeyes!!
