I hear that Emerald Bay is a great store, too.

It's supposedly in the top 10 in the nation for sales. Always have a huge selection of fish. Also check out FINS in Franklin (Exit 65) near Hobby Lobby. Smaller but they have a good selection too.

Aquatic Critters is a nice store for fish lovers. Their fresh water fish selection is quite impressive. They have many salt water fish tanks as well. Their coral selection and aquatic plant selection are a bit limited, though.

I always make a point of looking for a LFS in every city I go to. Was in NYC last week and went to one shop there. It had a good selection but they were pretty high, just like everything else in that city.

AC (Aquatic Critter) and ebay (Emerald Bay) are both really nice stores. My biggest complaint about AC is location. It's a difficult parking lot to get into. Like Tomoko said, except their coral selection has grown in the past 2-3 months. They've added a zero edge tank just for frags/clams.

Semi-OT: Anyone making the ~2 hour or better trip up to Nashville from Alabama might want to consider traveling another hour or so to Bowling Green and visit Fishey Business. Smaller fish selection but typically their coral selection is more than ebay and AC.

I really would like to see/make a map of all the saltwater stores in the SE.

I love the critter, and ebay. Fins is a little limited and kind of high priced compared to the other 2. Ebay includes tax in their prices. If it says $50 on the glass, that is what you pay when you check out.
