I happened to pass a new store on my way home today. It was called Tropical Isle Aquarium ( I believe ) and it was on Jericho Turnpike, a block west of Rte 34. The store was closed though the sign said it was open and there was a Grand Opening sign on it so I couldnt go in but from the front window it looked like a nice shop. Anyone been there?

Tropical Island is on Rt. 231 (Deer Park Ave) South side at Old Country Rd.

The only 34 I know of is the 231 split south of southern state, Jericho is north shore. There is/was another shop at south end of 231 but don't remember the name of the place.

If he's saying it was on Jericho Tpke and Rt. 34, how is that Deer Park Ave? That store on DPA is no where near Jericho. Unless he meant Rt 35 which I believe is the Deer Park Rd split from 231 that runs into Jericho. Or unless he has his road totally mixed up. LOL. Speaking of which, I think Damien on here works there. I stopped in once when it had first opened, it seemed nice.

Yeah I probably got my roads mixed up. It was on Rte 25, which I believe was Jericho Turnpike at that point and it was the Huntington area, on the north side of the street. I just checked the link for Tropical Fish Direct and thats the store but I could have sworn it said Tropical Isle. Is there another store called Tropical Isle as well?

It is on Jericho just West of deer park ave/park ave. Theres a Jeep dealer and Mobile on that corner. The owner is a new vender here at MR and has a Vender sale thread here. I was there a couple of days after he opened, looks to be a cool place says hes going to be getting a lot in. Prices looked to be very fair.
