Hey Ozzy you might try The Reef Shop. I live in Lawton and took a trip up there to visit and came back with a few specimins. I have only done buisiness with them that one time but they seemed helpfull and they had nice prices, plus a very good selection, at least compared to what Lawton has to offer =).

Ozzy
There are several shops in town, most of the shops do a good job with their live stock. Are you looking for Corals of fish ? Kyle McClain |

The ones I go to most often are PetVet in MWC, ReefShop in OKC and Aquariums in Edmond. I bought a nice open brain at Aquariums a couple of weeks ago. PetVet has some of those snails that look like bumble bees right now and I think they have a shipment of corals coming in later this week (wends or thurs).
Darkshadow: Does Joe know you got his list? I invited him to our next meeting. He's got a nano reef.

Yes we do have an order of corals coming in Wednesday afternoon. Should have some nice SPS stuff. Should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 70-90 pieces. We ordered 2 boxes and left it up to our coral guy to fill 2 boxes with his nicest pieces so I don't even know what most of the stuff coming in yet is but I made sure to try to pick some nice SPS stuff for our side of the order. Look forward to seeing you all there. By the way I take requests. So if you are looking for something I will make a note and try to get it on my next order.

I've heard there are some nice fish stores in Tulsa. Any recommendations? I might be up for a road trip to Tulsa in the next few weeks. Later, Don

fish stores in Tulsa. Any recommendations?
we dont have as many as ya do in OKC,thats for sure and thanks for the link..... back to Tulsa,we have[list=1][/list=1] Aquarium Dynamics @ 9504-a 54th #270-3474 this store is kinda hard to get to at this point due to alot of road construction,they do have a very good selection of corals but nothing is priced so they hip shoot prices and are very pricey ,just to give ya an idea..the qt size of ESV @ $39.00,a 50gal bag of I.O. @ $20.,even the cheap crap Seaclone skimmer is sold @ $160.,as fare as the coral prices kinda hard to tell,sometimes they have a price or two on the glass,most of the time not and as much as I like the coral selection at A.D. I do not think I will shop the store anymore due to pricing and above all something of another nature that I found very disturbing,never the less I'll shop elsewhere,that is what spawned this thread.[list=1][/list=1]Corals-N-Reefs 6104 e 71st *Summit Square*#491-7333 this store is the new guy in town,does not have as much to choose from as AD but is getting better,very clean shop and a bit better on the prices,AD is more the pro shop than this store is as fare as product goes,but you will find some nice corals[list=1][/list=1] Love a Pet 81st street & 145 E. Ave in B.A. #259-9041 you can find a few corals in this store from time to time but nothing to call mom about,mostly fish[list=1][/list=1] Tulsa Aquatics this is a new store right next to A.D. this is a fresh water only store and will soon be fresh and salt with corals as well we do have others in Tulsa,but I just dont care for them myself hth-Ozzy |

I'll just echo what Ozzy said about AD. They are very pricey. I was in there last week talking to the owner, telling her I was looking into getting a Remora Pro skimmer. She then informed me she had just gotten in a used Remora, not the pro, just the Remora skimmer. She said since it was used she would give me a good price on it. 180 bucks I about fell over! As for stores here in Tulsa I normally go to the afore mentioned Love a Pet, or Pet Mart, not PetSmart, Pet Mart. It is on 81st and Lewis and they have very reasonable prices. I got a Velentini Puffer there about 2 weeks ago for 15 bucks! I have been to Corals and Reefs and was not impressed. When I was there it seemed that they had more dead fish in their tanks than live ones. There is also a store in Bixby. Bixby Fishery, the owner is by far the most friendly and knowledgeable person I have dealt with in the area.

Ochelata.......????????
I am in Corals & Reefs all the time. I VERY rarely see any dead fish in there. I think they have an excellent shop. They have really spruced the place up very recently. Try them again. And I agree about AD - EXPENSIVE!!! Ya it's a nice clean shop,I'm getting to the point that I stop in more often,it's a new store and I think in time it will be even much better,I wish C & R had more of the product like AD I'll no longer shop AD ...... His shop didn't burn down; there was a fire in the strip mall he's in. His place was just badly smoke damaged well thats better I suppose,is he gonna re-open I didn't find him to be particularly personable. Maybe he just wasn't feeling good the couple of times I've been in there when he was opened no,he is like that all the time ,he doesnt speak a lot but thats OK Ozzy |
