Ocean life, FJW, and T&T are all pretty good. Ocean Life and FJW seem to have the biggest variety of different things. T&T seems to have some pretty basic stuff and occasionally some neat pieces. The Cinco Store has some good exotic stuff but really pricey. They are smaller and have some wonky hours from time to time, but they are knowledgeable and seem to be honest. All 4 of these stores seem to have competent owners and staff who willtalk through things with you.
I will say stay away from the store off Westheimer and Synott. I have had two outbreaks of Ick because of them. I now quarantine everything because of them. The owner is not very honest it seems either. Only seems to be worried about the money made and not the livestock or the customer experience after selling. They will sell you anything you want to buy even if they know it isn't going to be a good fit for your tank.

I went to FJW this past weekend and really wanted to buy some coral. However I seen a lot of aiptasia in the tank so I passed. Any advice you guys have to defeat it or what you guys do? I don't want to have a nightmare on my hands but, I really want to go pick up a coral from him.

Also I didnt see anyone mention BB Fish and Pets on FM1960 close to 249. They have a lot of frags.

Hector, the owner, & family are good people.
I agree, was there yesterday and have a huge appreciation for their patience! I’m still new to the hobby but they have been amazing in walking me through all of the ups and downs! Great people.
