That used to be "Petstop" or something close, right?

Aquarium Design Network-

Is this store worth visiting, about 30 minute drive for me. In my search for a crocea clam i was told that they have a bunch in stock.

Thanks for the reply,
Steven

Aquarium Dreams on Merrick Road seems to went out of business. There was a realty sign in the window.

That was quick. I never even got a chance to check them out.

I just came from Suffolk Co Fish and Reef; very impressive, clean and the help was very nice.

Worth the trip; I picked up a six line to replace mine that jumped. $10 cheaper than everywhere in nassau.

Awsome fish selection, and coral tanks.

Hello new to the forums where is this Suffolk Co Fish and Reef located?

Oooops nevermind figured it out

What do people think of Aquarium Design Network in Huntington, is it a good place to go?

 

[DEXTER SOLIS]

I havent been there, but staff knows there stuff, look for Jared

 

[jgiordano]

Well kept, decent frag selection and lots of dry goods.

I am actually in there almost every day, as they are located around the corner from my house. In my opinion they are one of the top stores on long island.

ADN now can get almost any bulb you want. Even ATI bulbs whcih were previously only availale through reefgeek

I think it's worth a trip. Not the biggest LFS but they have some nice frags/corals, some nice livestock and the important dry-goods.

They also happen to be a bunch of nice guys.

Country Critters has had a rep for a very long time of being THE store that you had to see, but a place you wouldn't buy anything at because of high prices, and a less than friendly staff.
That rep and a less than pleasant experience the first time I visited kept me away from the store for a long time.
I went in there recently, and was surprised at the differences I saw. There's a new owner, and new staff. I saw some of the staff actually smile at people.
Prices are lower than what they were, but CC is still no discount fish store. Their stuff did look healthy, and the store still has a presentation that everyone in the hobby should experience.
