New to the area -LFS advice

[Nicholas Scelzi]

Hey y’all! Long time hobbyist but new to the Nashville area. My 8 year old is ready to tank the plunge after watching me do this for years and wants to set up his own tank.

Any advice for best LFS in the area? Been doing my research and from what I can see online both aquatic critter and music city aquatics look like clean well kept stores with clean tank and healthy livestock.

My son is getting his feet wet with a FOWLR tank so looking for advice on which store has the healthiest fish. Do either stores have quarantine procedures? Which of the two has the healthier overall tanks and fish?

Trying to gauge online before I make the 45 min drive from Clarksville.

Thanks in advance !

I have had great luck with aquatic critter in the past. I have never been to music city aquatics. We are getting back into the hobby after a two year break. Was just a Aquatic Critter today. I have gotten all my fish from them in the past. For years they have labeled tanks with copper in them and some that don't. I did not say any labels today. To my knowledge they don't quarantine any fish. Good selection of fish, but they did just get an order today.

Thanks for the reply. Checked it out myself last week and was impressed. Would like to check out music city aquatics as well. When you were there today did you happen to see if they had any dwarf angels? Looking for a bi color. I know they get their shipments on thursdays of livestock
