Michelle, Welcome to GSAS. I live in Tacoma. I'm not sure what you are looking for exists in Tacoma. Aquarium Paradise in Lakewood Towne center or Pac Ave Pets on Pacific Ave in Spanaway area are about the only other private shops left. One of them may be willing to order for you. Snubber's occasionally gets some really interesting stuff on trade from other customers. Don't know if he does individual orders in fish. He is fun and very knowledgeable guy who probably knows everybody in this area who has ever kept fish. Worth the trip to his shop just to get aquanted and you can get just about anything in line of equipment from him. If you have interest in riding together to meetings, contact me off list or if you would just like to chat about fish stuff contact me for that too :-) June on 2/24/03 6:10 PM, Michelle Gregory at anrkeygrrrl@hotmail.com wrote: > Hi everyone, > > I recently moved to the area and I joined GSAS this month during the Plant > Auction > meeting. > > I live in Tacoma and wanted to know if anyone could recommend a LFS in my > area?
