Las Vegas - Aquariums and LFS to visit

[Alexander1312]

Does anyone have any reef tank-related recommendations on what to see in Las Vegas while we are on vacation there this week? Are any public Aquariums or LFS worth seeing?

Blue reef aquatics biggest and cleanest store in town..
Aquatic treasures is nice.
Artistic oceans is cool.
Trop aquarium decent…
Ummmm for public aquariums there isn’t much but silverton casino that I’m aware of.. caesars forum shops have a couple fish tanks.

Any of these stores willing to let me snipe a deal? I feel so bad for my lfs because I’ll see a piece of coral that fell or is under the rack and try and buy it off of them. They are cool with it and it’s always fun going back and fourth in prices and talking but idk if it’ll come off as rude because I don’t know them

I doubt it but hey! Anything is worth a shot.

There’s an aquarium at the Luxor … it wasn’t the greatest … there was comps on the app to get in cheap
Had a really nice decent sized tank at the end but otherwise underwhelming

That makes a little more sense.. I’d guess you’re referring to the shark reef! I wasn’t aware of a tank in Luxor. Silverton has a huge tank with a mermaid that swims around, Caesar’s palace has a couple in the forum shops and down on Fremont there’s a shark tank with a pool slide. The mirage used to have a tank I’m not sure if it’s still there or not with hard rock buying them out. The rest would be in dr offices or private homes.
