Southwest Saltwater Closed!

[Hamsternuts]

It looks like it's gone out of business. :sad1:

I stopped by the store today (5/3) and there was some sort of notice stuck to the front door. I peeked inside through the glass and the store has been almost completely dismantled. The giant 6'x4' tank in the middle is gone as well as most of the rest of everything else. There were a few empty tanks here and there as well as a live rock tank which looked to still have water and rock in it. It looks like a disaster in there. Whoever left it that way must have been in a hurry.

Just a heads up so nobody else wastes their time driving over there like I did. I sure wish there was a good saltwater place on the NW side. Maybe someday...

Thats truly a pity, especially since I am going back to saltwater, how does SEA compare to SWS?

 

[mattsummers]

SEA bought SWS and then moved too a new location on speedway

 

[brbrem]

I was there 2 weeks ago and it was like that. Guy at Oasis said SEA bought them out???

 

[BonesCJ]

Competition is getting fierce!

Sea bought SWSW. They closed the store and started a new location near speedway and craycroft I think. The original sea location is still running at Glenn and Campbell.

+1 for SEA I have always been treated fairly and honestly with them.

Does SEA have the livestock from the main DT from SWSW? There were a few things in there that I was interested in. Haven't made it to a LFS in week because of finals and such :/
