The most impressive aquarium, outside of the Aquarium, is at The Rainforest Cafe in Southcenter. As much as I hate chain restaurants, and the smell of the place, the fish display is amazing. My wife was there once when they were cleaning. They have a couple of guys go in in SCUBA outfits.

Thanks Sandy, I will go to Midway pets for sure then!! It sounds wonderful. I am meeting a guy in Auburn Sat. evening about some of his fish, so can easily go that direction. Thanks! I am kind of relieved to hear what you had to say about the fish store, because I have had the same experience. Everytime I go in there I feel like I'm walking into someone's private store and am not welcome. One of the guys that helped me there once also didn't know the difference between Lake Malawi and Tanganyikan Cichlids and tried to convince me they were the same type. Thanks for your help. I am excited to check out a Place for Pets and Midway.

Hi Monica,
Well since you starting in Seattle you check out kings Discus on king street by where the I5 crosses over. And you should go to Leims just for the experience. They are located in the alley between 7th and 8th the alley is located between king and the next street south. Also contact Bob because there is a really cool restaurant/nightclub that has an incredible aquarium. All of these are located in chinatown. If you do plan to go south you may want to check out Kevins new store in Burien on SW 152nd by 4th ave sw. If you really need to purchase something then do it at Midway pets which is located on hwy 99 south of kent around 260th. They also have an outstanding outside goldfish and koi selection. Midway has the best prices hands down then any other fish store. I seriously do not like the Fish store on Roosevelt they always try to sell you the most expensive items. And any place that has signs that say come to the counter if you need help is very low on customer se!
 rvice.
 Have a great time and call me if you need better directions. 206 219 9124
