Help from an Austinite needed

[reeferRob]

Does Austin Aqua-Dome and Gallery of Pets Inc offer anything in the way of SW fish, corals and or inverts?

Aqua-Dome does. Haven't been to Gallery lately, but they have had fish/corals/inverts in the past. Hopefully someone else will chime in with more up-to-date info.

Also check out River City Aquatics. It is near 183 & Anderson Mill.

aquadome's selection on corals and inverts is somewhat lacking IME, they do carry a variety of fish though. in austin i would go to aquatek, or austin aquariums.

Horizon Pets down the road from River City seems to be increasing the amount of sw they carry. They had some nice clams last time I was by.

Gallery has lots of salt tanks, but IMO have been a little thin on number of fish in them just lately, except for the tank raised percs, maroons, and dottybacks. They just recently started up a large tank of corals that is pretty well stocked though.

The new owner, Glenda used to run a tank maintenance business so she's more into the fish side whereas the previous owner was more into the birds. Glenda helped me with my tank a few times back when she was doing maintenance and I thought she was very very good. I'm really happy she and her husband bought Gallery and look forward to seeing what they do with the salt side.

Horizon Pets has gotten better and better on the salt side and now has a good selection of fish,corals,both soft and SPS and I hear better things are coming.

I second Horizon Pets. He has several coral tanks and alot of fish tanks. he seems to keep everything seperated.

Here's my path on a clear morning: Start at Austin Aquariums on Northcross; then 3 or 4 blocks of Anderson Lane to the nearby Aquatek on Burnet. North out of there onto 183/Research to Gallery of Pets, further up 183 to River City and Horizon. You can make the whole tour in an hour. Gotta go to Aquadome on a different day, but worth it. I guess I have become addicted.
