    I am a big fan of Tropical Aquarium, off of 82 in Brunswick, OH. The owner is really cool and he will special order fish you want. Also the prices are great. I have been to Salty Critters, a little bit of a drive, they have great prices on live rock. I ordered 100#'s last year, great shapes, colors, and cool hitch hikers. I also have been to Aquarium Adventures, there prices are to rich for my blood, but they do have a good selection of fish. If you want corals in NE Ohio I would say that Aquatic Tech in Columbia station is the place to go. Just my two cents, I think I have been to every lfs in the greater Akron area.

    Hey guys, I have been to Aquarium adventure many times. My wife and I usually make a pass through the Columbus Zoo Aquarium twice a year.

    C-bus used to have a Marine Aquarium Store called Jack's Aquarium anyone know if it's still open?

    If you go to yellowbook.com and search it you get 3 Jack's Aquarium and pet stores. So they must still be around, are they worth going to? Compared to aquarium adventure how are they?

    Jack's Aquaruim is still open, I was there about a month ago. Just a side note Jack's is a daughter company of Pet Solutions, I called petsolutions about three years ago to see if I could visit their store in Beavercreek, Ohio. They told me that they were just a shipping center and that Jack's was supplied by them. Just useless knowledge I thought I'd share.

    Aquarium Adventure is alot pricer than Jack's but the selection is not as good, fish or dry goods.
