  • Looking for best Dallas LFS..

    Hey everyone, we're up here for the state fair and thought about checking out a Dallas LFS on our way out of town. Could everyone give us their one recommendation for the best LFS in dallas? We prefer stores with better Tropheus/Tanganyikan & Flowerhorn selections.

    Thanks!

    Rift to Reef is supposed to be a nice store. I've never been there and I'm not too fond of the owner....but he is supposed to have a good selection.

      Thanks Charles! Unfortunately this place looks to be up in Lewisville and too far away.

        Try the Dallas Fish Box
        'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust ...'
        He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'

          Looking on there right now.. We were just hoping for a little first hand experience though. It's still hard to judge the best LFS's by reviews sometimes..

            Dfwfishbox.com is another forum you can check out.

            Dane is decent..... he's the owner of rift to reef and usually has a decent stock of tangs. Also he's an ADA dealer.

              I just still have a problem with what he did with the first African Cichlids Aquaculture group buy. It really rubbed me the wrong way.

                  Okay, thanks for the links. What's the dirt on R2R? You can't just dangle it out there and not explain..

                    There was a slight mis-understanding with the rules of the ACA group buy. A mis-understanding that was expressed through a few forums.

                      Here's their latest stock: r2r stock.

                      Looks pretty good.. It might be worth the drive if we can check-out early enough.

                        And I will add that Dane is fond of sour grapes.

                          I know your looking for FW fish, but this list has 99% of the stores in the DFW listed. Whether it be FW or SW.

                            I've been to Rift2Reef on several occasions. They primarily stock saltwater and Tanganyikans. Regardless of what people say about Dane (the owner), the store has an excellent selection of Tangs at reasonable price. He's been able to special order what I wanted in the past at a discount.  

                            I'm actually going up there this weekend!

                            Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
                            Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.
