Coming to Town Need some Pointers!

[Fishcrazy06]

I will be visiting Chicagoland starting next thursday. I will be staying out in schaumburgh and was wondering if someone could give me some addresses of good LFS in the area. I have heard about Oceans Floor I believe but can't seem to find any info on it. Any and all addresses would be awesome and thank you in advance.

Oceans Floor is under new management and won't reopen until the 28th of this month. I don't think they have the new web site up yet.

If you can make the drive go to Reef Depot you won't regret it. The website with all info is: http://www.reefdepot.net/ also Ocean Design is close to me far from the burbs so don't go but here's a website with all LFS in chicago (you have to move it to chicago default is LA): http://zoyzoy.com/aquarium/aquariumstoresmap.asp?Zip=60610&Size=800

Name calling from the "CMAS President"? Very mature... I'm sure CMAS members everywhere are proud.

As the LFS Liaison, you can do better than limiting your recommendation to one store, can't you?

Eric, I work in Schaumburg and won't mind taking a long lunch to hit some spots on Thursday or Friday (pm me).You may want to post if you are looking for something in particular, most people here will know where to find it.
SOMEONE please post the link to all LFS in the area.
