Fish stores in the North Shore (MA)

[Thomasflynn15]

I live in the North Shore MA and was wondering if anyone knew of any fish stores in the area with Valentines Day deals of any type coming up/occurring right now. If not, does anyone know if at the minimum, Petco has historically had valentines deals on livestock?

I would suggest trying the local forums.

I lived in metro west. Moved back to Chicago last summer. Best store I found (and miss here in Chicago) was Love the Reef in Wilmington. Small but mighty - good fish, invert, and coral selection. Everything I bought was pest and disease free. All the essential dry goods too.

I know you asked about Valentine’s Day sales specifically. Don’t know if they’re doing one but they ran holiday sales regularly so they very well might be.

Also had very good experiences with All Things Aquatic in Foxboro but that’s more of a trip for you. Bigger fish selection here but the coral was generally better at Love the Reef.

And to @jsker ’s point definitely join the Boston Reefer Society forum if you haven’t already

I think I have been to all things Aquatic in Foxboro when I lived up in Dedham sometime ago. Chicago was before New York and then Boston LOL
