I have a business meeting Wednesday and I am flying in Tuesday afternoon. Anyone know of any shops actually worth seeing near the Bloomingdale area? I will have a rental car, but I'd rather not drive to d-town Chicago.

Thanks in advance for any tips!
 
Old town fish store is pretty good. Very expensive though but considering the area it's no surprise. They have some insane fish that I don't see in any other fish stores, clarion angels, joculator angel, pairs of candy basslets, and other crazy ones. Their coral is decent but nowhere near the quality of their fish
 
when i was in chicago for work a few months back, i stopped at reef impprts and hatchery in elk grove village. they used to be a wholesaler and are now open to the public. they had a good bit of nice stuff there
