Barrier Reef is a MUST! Tell Cy and the gang that I said Hi!
 
There is one that is located at about 104th and Aurora, I'm not sure of the name. It's a little ma and pa store and every time I go in there I get some nice gems at great prices. They mainly sell FW stuff but if you go back in the right hand corner of the shop there are about a dozen SW tanks.

I would consider these 3 a must.
 
Ahh I see, I've never been there. I have only been to a few Seattle LFS, I'm 3 hours north so I don't get down there often. I do know there was a good one in Tacoma that just closed though.

The only stores in this list that are actually saltwater stores are Saltwater City in Belevue, Barrier Reef Aquarium in Renton , and Blue Sierra in Issaquah.
If you used Barrier Reef the center point, Saltwater City is about 20-25 minutes north on I-405 to I-520, and Blue Sierra is about 20-25 minutes east on I-90.

The others are just freshwater fish and pet stores that happen to have a few saltwater tanks. None of which I would bother going to if I was coming in from out of town.


Wild World Aquariums in Olympia was closed last time I went by.
 
cool thank you guys for the info!
 
When I was stationed in Whidbey a few years ago they had a cool shop that had a good selection by the movie theater. I'm not sure of the name of it though.
 
No worries, i'm sure i'll have pleeeeenty of time on shore duty to sniff out all the shops around me.
