I will be in the Dallas area tomorrow just for a couple of hours.....

Do you know in which store I could find products like AZ-NO3, PO4 Minus and Rowaphos ?

Since I'm only there for a couple of hours, I don't want to loose time on visiting 6 different stores before I find what I'm looking for.

Your help will be greatky appreciated.

Melev,

I did stop in Dallas but to be honest, I didn't find anything since I didn't have a lot of information were to go.

I'm stopping in Dallas again on June 17th and maybe I'm going to stay the whole weekend over there, so I may have some more time to do some shopping.

Any nice public aquariums to visit ?

My favorite is the Dallas World Aquarium. It is in West End (Dallas), and worthy of your time. I have a webpage about it in the Photography Section of the Hidden Treasure page of my site, if you want to preview your trip.

Also in that general vicinity is Fish Gallery (15 minutes away, at the most), and it is a nice store to visit. I see someone linked the LFS page from my site already, so just scroll up a few posts to locate that particular store.

There are several good sw stores in Dallas.
Dallas North Aquarium: 2910 E. Trinity Mills, Carrollton, TX 75006 ph# 972-492-6165.
Boutique Pet Shop & Aquarium: 9035 Garland Rd. Dallas, TX 75218 ph# 214-321-1219.
Exotic Aquatics: 2929 Custer Rd. 317 Plano, TX ph# 972-519-9559.
Aquatic Design Aquariums: 901 W Parker Rd. Suite 131 Plano ph# 972-423-0414.
The Fish Gallery 6955 Greenville Ave.Dallas TX 75231 ph# 214-750-7002.
These are some of the more popular stores that I have been to in Dallas. They all have good selections of fish and equipment for any saltwater tank.
Aquarium Trading Company is longer open in Addison on Midway Rd. I've been by there and nothing is there anymore. Don't know if they have moved or went out of business.
If you would like to know of some other stores that I've been to around this part of dallas then just post a message and I will be glad to help you as well as the staff at these stores. They are all knowledgeable and curtious. Currently Dallas North Aquarium is closed due to a fire that occured back in May. They plan on a grand reopenning in the middle of July. I will definetly be there. I can also give you the web address to any of these stores if you would like to see more information from each of them for yourself. I hope this will help you locate some new places if you have not already been to any of them.

ksanfranfan,

[welcome]

Are you also posting on the message board on DFWMAS.org, and if so what username are you using over there? I go by "Marc" on our board.

Sorry melev that I have not responded yet. I am in the process of moving from Garland to Plano. I am not registered on the dfwmas website yet. I am planning on getting a membership and start attending some of the meetings. I was going to try and join a couple of weeks ago when they were here in garland having a club meeting. I was at the Pet Boutique Shop last month in May when dfwmas met there. I would like to join benefit from the experience and rewards of an organized marine club in the dfw area.
Melev(Marc) I will try to get registered on dfwmas' web page this weekend. Look for ksanfranfan(Kenyon) on the website also. Hopefully we can have good conversations about our great hobby.
