Aqua Tech in Cheektowaga

I know there have already been reviews of the new store but I couldn't find them :rolleyes:

I visited for the first time last night and thought I'd share my opinions.

First, it was rather difficult to find because the address is Genesee St. but it's really on Airborne Parkway. In the rush hour traffic I was delayed by not one accident, but two, so I had my eyes glued to the traffic instead of the Aqua Tech Sign. Once I found it the store was definately worth the effort.

For the size of the store the diversity of coral was amazing. There are not a lot of each type of coral but it had a very impressive selection.

The corals were healthy but some SPS were still browned. Growing tips made it obvious that they were indeed very healthy. The LPS Had excellent color and none appeared to have retracted at all. There were some gorgeous softies including show piece quality specimens.

All items were very fairly priced and there were even a few true bargains, I walked away with one of the best bargains though, a large rock covered with a Jakarta Mushroom variety I have never seen before. I did not take the other two similar rocks even though I was very tempted.

The fish selection was fairly low but the tank are very pleasing to the eye and are not overcrowded. I was also very tempted to take home some of the Tank Bred Seahorses for my next breeding adventure. I decided to set up a species tank for them first before making that attempt.

In summary, this new store is well worth a visit.

Agreed, I just went for my first visit about a week ago. Great selection of corals both for health and price. Its nice to see a store so dedicated to reefers :)
 
The address is 4700 Genesee St. Its literally just past the airport on the east side. You actually have to turn on to airborne parkway to get in the parking lot despite the genesee st address. airborne parkway is on the same side of genesee that the airport is ;)
 
so i go on transit and hang a right on to aerospace and then what?/...well i map it. what the zip there.
 
If you zoom in, Aqua Tech is in the far back left of that building above the map pointer. Also, I just noticed all you have to do is click the box for ââ"šÂ¬Ã…"œTo Hereââ"šÂ¬Ã‚ and enter your address.

Saturday hours are 10am to 6pm. Thanks Guy, I went there today and even though I spent $190 yesterday, thanks to your suggesting I check it out I almost spent another $150 today. I have a serious problem. I had to RUN out of the store to keep from spending crazy money two days in a row. I guess I'll wait until saturday, at least that will give me two days of no spending on the reef. I need Reef Anonymous :D
 
got there to late...damn it...i was really looking foward tfor it too. oh well maybe next time.

I was there until 10:30PM last night feeding the corals. If you see a car or truck outside the door, someone's in there. You can also give the store a call to check if anyone is there. The number is 716 565 0700
