Inland Aquatics

Anyone ever been there? Do they have more live stock and corals than what is shown on their website? A lot of it I can get locally and wouldn't be worth the 3 hr drive down.

It's a great place! Some of their show tanks that have been set-up for years are awesome. It's worth the dirve to see them and tour their back area, that's where all the cool stuff is. I think you would enjoy it.

I like looking at cool tanks but would also like to buy some cool corals. Part of the reason for going is to find unique corals that are not available in my area.

They do have more, but most of the good stuff is in the back and you can't always get back there.

What are you looking for sps, zoos, lps??? May be a trip to the frag swap on the 12th would be more productive.

Rics, crazy colored brains, acans.
I have to work the weekend of the swap.

You might find some rics there, but not sure about the others. Someone's that's been there recently might want to chime in.

More likely to find that stuff at Paradise Reef or Extreme Aquarium. Their hours are general limited to Saturdays, but they have the best livestock in the area.

you should call and ask to see if they have what you want they are very helpful in there and a tour is almost always possible.i live a few miles from them

Try Aquarium World in Lafayette as well. They usually have some different ricordia colours. They get their shipments in on Tuesdays... that's usually the best time to be there.

Thanks everyone. We decided to go North instead of South. We will be going South in the near future though.

Inland is amazing. Pricing personally is a small bit more for some things though. They'll take you in the back if you have a reason. I wanted a baby true perc. They brought me back to pick from their stash. They haev several tanks of rics, all for like... $6 per ric. No matter what size. I had a few from there, they grew great. You can bargain your way down a bit too. I got a $50 frogspawn for $35.

also, email them, they reply really fast and give you any info you need.
