Creative Aquariums

I stopped by Creative Aquariums and was very impressed. It's a large store and it's packed with fish and corals! All of the tanks were very clean, and everything looked healthy and beautiful. The prices were reasonable as well. I came home with two stylophora frags. You can also get on their mailing list to find out about deals and what is in stock. Right now they are having a 4th of July sale which makes stopping by this weekend extra sweet!

Thank you to Creative Aquariums for sponsoring our organization! We truly appreciate your support!!

Stopped by Creative Aquariums yesterday and picked up this awesome frag!



There are always soooooo many different corals there! It's easy to go broke quickly.

Just went by here today and picked up plenty of coral! If you want to see them check out my thread on my 6 gallon softie and my 27 gallon. All of the staff there is very helpful and they have a wonderful selection of corals!

Went by Creative Aquariums today. They are having their Holiday Sale so everything is 25% which is super awesome! Grabbed myself a cute little monti spongode.

Forgot to mention in my last post...

I was looking for a yellow goby or neon gobies for me 47 gallon at Creative Aquariums when I was last there. I looked around, didn't see any, so I asked one of the employees if they had any in stock. He replied, "no" but informed me that they had just received their fish shipment for the week and that he would be willing to go through it all and look to see if they got any in. This employee went through about 8 cardboard boxes pulling out every bag to check to see if it was a goby for me. So sweet! That is customer service!!!

My mom and brother picked me up an adorable little grey clown goby from Creative Aquariums this past Friday. Cute lil' guy, and great price! I'll post pics in my showcase thread soon!!

Just stopped in there the other day and couldn't leave empty handed. The coral selection is the best around and affordable for anyone! I had always wanted a piece of red planet acro but could only find big frags for around 80+ dollars. They had small frags for 10!!! As well as blue and orange Yumas which I hadn't seen at any other LFS. Thanks for everything!!!

That's a steal on the red planet!

SO I was once again impressed with Creative. They always have what you want from softies to many types of SPS. Some of the cool things I picked up during their sale was a beautiful blue and orange acan with about 6 heads, a chalice that glows orange red, and another chalice... which branches like an Acro

Best place ever. Service was as good as ever

Went to Creative Aquariums as well this weekend to check out their Memorial Day Weekend Sale! Awesome stuff and GREAT deals! Everything in the store is 20% off!! I came home with several frags and a huge chunk of turbinaria for a steal! They had some really unusual stuff, like Nicholas said in his post (e.g., branching chalice, rare montis, turbinaria, and hydnophora).

As usual, Adam was very nice and helpful, and Tom even had a bit of a chance to talk with Nicholas and me in between helping customers. Also, I like that they added a $5 and $10 frag section (my kind of shopping ). I'll be posting pics in my showcase thread soon!

Stopped into Creative Aquariums this afternoon. It's always so nice to stop by...Their store is so clean and nice, and all of their fish and corals always look so happy and healthy.

I ended up coming home with a frag of cinnamon palys and some blue leg hermits. I'll post a pic of the palys when they open!

I'd like to give a special shout-out to Creative Aquariums who has decided to sponsor our club for the 2nd consecutive year!!! We truly appreciate your support!!


Also, Creative Aquariums was generous enough to donate to our club an Eshopps Skimmer!! You'll being seeing it raffled off this Fall! So, stay tuned for all of the Aquarist Club at USF events that we are planning for you!

Such a great store. Out of my list of fish I wanted for my tank they had 5 which is the majority of fish that I want. All of which looked healthy and beautifully hand picked

so you bought fish? we need pics!

I did not buy any, I wanted some but my tank isn't quite ready sadly :/, I do think I will be getting my harlequin tusk from them though.

Check out my palys from Creative Aquariums!

Magicians!
do they look cool under actinics?

I thought they were magician's too, but Creative said they were Cinnamons. Perhaps one in the same? And, yes, they look great under actinics!

Hmm that sounds pretty off. Although with zoas there are so many common names.. lol

only cinnamon palys i've seen (and owned) looked like this: http://lucidcorals.com/zen/images/Paly02-Sun.jpg

now maybe they call them cinnamon zoas?

Yeah, I've seen cinnamon palys like those. I don't know. Probably just another common name like you said. To prevent confusion, I'll call them Samantha's Sexy Starbursts

Thanks to Tom at Creative Aquariums for the Amazonas and Coral magazine donations for our club raffle!

I owe some credit to this store for having some of the sweetest lionfish around! Both of my fuzzy dwarfs and the fu manchu came from here, all of which are happy and healthy!

Just want to give a quick shout out to Creative Aquariums. They saved my butt today...

My Mag-Drive 18 for my new 100 gallon broke, and it was brand new -- broken right out of the box. Impeller messed up and pump well all scratched. Big Al's (who I bought it from) won't take responsibility, and Danner is sending me through hoops. But, Creative Aquariums had one in stock, set it aside for me, and I picked it up this evening. Everything is up and running now (and actually working!), and now hopefully I can start adding some critters in finally!

Thanks Tom and Creative Crew!
