Finding a LFS in Chicago area

[Bbarton908]

I have looked on other websites and I just decided I would post something. I'm not from the Chicago area and finding a lfs that has a variety of pretty/unique/healthy corals is harder then I thought. I've been to about 4 places and i just haven't really found anything. If anyone could help me out that'd be great.

where have you been? where are you? Regardless of city, i have found the need to look at several or all stores to find a coral that strikes my fancy

reefwise in lisle is decent but he is kinda pricey.

reefwise in lisle is decent but he is kinda pricey.

Was just there the other day and I thought his inverts were ok some fish decent but a full blown ripoff on corals. $35 for a single ricordia and $55 for about 7 polyps of watermelons
