Inland Empire Roll Call

Salties that's it! Lol. My favorite place, although not REALLY local, is in Anaheim, off of State College Dr. It's called Reef tropical fish. Probably the best selection I've ever seen.

Is that place new? I've never heard of it.

Reef Lounge, off the 91 fwy, has a huge coral and fish selection too.

Nope, salties has been around for a while! He usually has more rare selection of fish than the other lfs. It's off the 91 fwy between la Sierra and tyler. He has a sign you can see from the freeway. It's next to Richardson RV

I've heard of reef lounge.
I think they were always closed when I happen to be over that way

Reef lounge usa in Anaheim. It's different than the one your talking about.

I've never seen anything other than Asian employees at Reef Lounge. They know their stuff, helpfu and friendly. Prices are hit and miss. I've seen good deals and some overpriced. They are on La Palma in Anaheim in an industrial complex.

It's the opposite direction, but Ellis Aquatics in Compton is great. He runs a shop out of his garage, but has better prices than most shops and has a huge selection. It's a serious shop too...not your typical guy selling from his house. Sells foods, live rock, water...pretty much anything a store would sell.
