Hi, Looking to shop for some corals today and one of my favorites is closed today (Aquarium Care Center, ACC), who has a favorite place and where are they located in New York/New Jersey?
Thanks,
Steve

Don't go too early. He won't let you in. I went there early since I was down the street for a client and needed to pick something up so I thought I'd swing by. It was early but he was in there. Looked at me (he was walking towards the door) and turned away.

That's fine. Posted hours for a reason. So I left and haven't returned. He does have a nice selection though.

I think you have better options on the other side. Pop, Aquarium Village, Petswarehouse, etc.

If you go on the jersey end, you'll end up at AO. If you want to venture out further, maybe feng's reef and OG II.

Og ii??

Ocean Gallery II - Good amount of selection. Only place I have found Rod's Food. The big hype is LRS food now so that's at AO.

Please make sure you call fengs reef first. Too many people complain about open hours since he does mainly side installations. His main contact info is on njreefers.org

Evo thanks for all the info, went to OG II and Feng's Reef today!
OG II had a great selection and prices were reasonable ended up buying a few frags there, paly's and blasto, zoa's. Then I visited Feng's, he is a really, really nice guy and we BS'd for a while, selection was lacking but his display tank was really nice, lots of cool SPS, so I was only able to pick up a couple of frags there, and he gave me a complimentary piece of SPS to try my luck at!
