Just opened up recently. Open Monday through Saturday. Looks to be a decent source for those of us on the north side of Knoxville.

Just a side note: That really is the phone number for Aquatic Marine. The answering message says "Nova", but if you dial "32" you get the Aquatic Marine extension.

Is Fish Fair in Morristown any good for fish? I am in this area on business this week and might go by there tomorrow.

mkenochm · 09/01/2009, 07:31 PM

Exotic Pets in Bristol CLosed several years ago. Did they reopen and are now closing agin at the end of this year???

mkenochm · 09/01/2009, 07:32 PM

Fish fair normally has some nice coral pieces but not a lot to choose from and their fish selection has been down a little here of late. I actually find them pricey but if you are in the area it wouldn't hurt to stop in.

Randy, I think we'll have to revise that Wednesday thing since we're getting orders on different days now. I took the little sign off the door.

is this in knoxville? how many of these other stores in the knox area are still open? i've only found the aquarium and the coral reef with any kind of coral selection.

Thanks

bluestarfish · 04/01/2010, 12:08 AM

They are technically in Powell but just barely.

EvilMel · 04/01/2010, 01:16 PM

Aquatic Marine is supposed to have a pretty decent coral selection but I haven't been there myself.

I know that Russell (Flavum) is pretty well into all kinds of corals so he'd probably help keep them stocked up!

Steve W · 08/12/2010, 09:56 PM

I went by Harry's in Oak Ridge last week, but it is an empty store with all kinds of nice painted pets on the windows, but nothing inside. The phone number says it is no longer in service. Must have happened very recently because a friend of mine in Oak Ridge said he was just in there recently and it was fully stocked.

It happened this Summer. I think Aquatic Marine bought most of their tanks and is in the process of setting them up to add freshwater fish to their store.

Jennifier615 · 08/14/2010, 04:57 AM

Fins of franklin tn and the critter is where I usually shop. They are roughly 70 miles from me in smithville tn and knoxville is 97 from me.

bluestarfish · 08/14/2010, 06:36 PM

The freshwater setup at AM is really coming together. I can't wait until it's all finished.

Jennifier615 · 08/14/2010, 07:31 PM

Oh there is a store called Emerald Bay in lakewood used to be a really large saltwater store in Bellevue, More into reptiles now,,,,,,,
