looking for lfs in delray area

[tmc1313]

Hi guys, I'm in the delray area for the week and want to check out some lfs's in the area. What are some recommendations? I particularly would like to see a nice coral shop with a good selection of saltwater fish. Thanks

I know of a couple a little bit more north of you. Its my LFS stores. I like both of them.
Tanks a lot ( Lantana and jog rd ) and OCean something ( Military tril and hypoluxo )

I don't know too much about corals yet, but I do know that the Tanks a lot does sell some coral that just became illegal in state of FL and or US. (Can't get anymore shipped in, but can sell what they have kind of illegal )

+1 for Endless Oceans but I do not get up that way much.. Drop down to Boca Raton- as Barrier Reef is one of the most respected LFS in S. Florida and always have a nice selection of Softies, LPS but not a ton of Acros. They are about 20-30 minutes south (maybe less) of Delray. Others I would buy from are Elite Marine- Pompano for fish and corals which is another 20-25 minutes south of Boca, a little more south are Blue Seas, Plantation for Acros, and Exotic Aquatic- Oakland Park/Ft Lauderdale for a nice mix. Each within 20 minutes of each other. Then another 30 minutes to Bird Road in Miami where there are 4 or 5 stores -some better than others. I am sure I missed a few due to no experience.

Keep driving 20-30 mins south after each LFS you hit. You'll keep finding better and better !

Thanks for all the suggestions! I'll have plenty of time to hit up a lot of the stores. I was supposed to go diving this week, but it's too windy and the surf is bad. Two days diving are cancelled already.:sad2:
