Looking for a good LFS

fish439 · 05-25-2006, 11:45 AM

I just moved to Greenville, NC to start at East Carolina University in the fall. I am going to get back into the reef keeping hobby and was wondering if anyone lived in this area and could direct me to a good local fish store. Thanks for any info in advance.

Thanks. I've heard of a Pets Plus and an Animal Jungle in the area. Are either of these any good?

Not sure now. I think they have changed owners since I've been there...

The best fish stores are going to be in the Raleigh Durham area. You can get what you need at pets plus, not sure how the staff is there right now, but Dan the manager at the pets plus store is a good guy.
