Recently moved to CDA from the Puget Sound area and this was the 3rd saltwater/reef shop in the…read moreSpokane area I've visited. The quality of shops in Spokane leave much to be desired and this one is at the bottom of the list. Walking into the shop it just smells bad. Most likely due to the carpet that is probably well soaked with dirty tank water from doing water changes. That should be 'if' they do water changes. The smell is not from curing live rock as I've seen a user in another review suggest. The tanks are filthy. Every saltwater tank panel was covered in nasty cyano and algae. Live rock in each tank is COVERED in aptasia. Zero corals. Not a one. No way they could live in these systems any way so this shop really should reconsider changing the name. No coral reef here. The other issue with the place is that it's stuck in some long lost past decade. Any decent saltwater store knows what a skimmer is and how to use and sell them. I don't think I saw one for sale in this place. Maybe I missed that Coralife HOB SuperSkimer collecting dust on some bottom shelf somewhere. Who knows? I didn't see any sort of sump system making use of a skimmer or any modern filtration/water treatment. Every tank had a an old skool HOB Penguin type filter. When I asked if they keep frozen foods in the freezer, I was told they all frozen foods were garbage and pollute your tank. If that were true, it wouldn't make the tanks in this place look any worse than they already do. I was then asked to name one decent frozen food. Ok fish dude, here you go: Rod's Reef (they have a bunch of different kinds) Piscene Energetics (they make wide variety of foods for corals and fish) Nutramar Ova Ocean Nutrition just to name a few.... and don't forget about live/liquid foods by AlgaGen, Korallen-Zucht, Elos, Brightwell etc... I know about foods with gel binders as do many others and nothing wrong with educating and stocking non gel binder food. You can also rinse those foods before feeding and if your actually performing proper maintenance through water changes and using modern filtration techniques like oh say i dunno, a SKIMMER, then you will be just fine. I don't recall seeing any LED fixtures or modern reef lighting fixtures either. Again, zero corals, and zero inverts. No reef found here so how could you possibly trust this stores experience in setting up a reef tank or caring for saltwater livestock? As for the staff, they're not out of norm for the area when compared to the other 2 stores in the area that stock saltwater fish/equipment. Folks here just seem to be lazy and not care about their shops. If they do, it doesn't show. This is the second place I've walked into and the the owner is just sitting around watching TV or on their phone/computer while the store is left dirty, unorganized and the display tanks un-maintained and filled with aptasia and majano's. At another I was greeted by some young gal that came out the back room with the fresh smell of weed and cigarettes trailing behind her as she tried to find something I ordered and they had been trying to locate in their store for more than a week. It's hard to find things when your stoned sweetie, just saying... Someone who is serious about saltwater fish and corals could really blow these other stores out of the water should they decide to open a quality shop. You know what's really sad? The best saltwater fish and corals I've found in this area are at the Petco in CDA/Hayden. They even have a cool little frag tank setup with SPS, LPS and softies. I walk in and see a Potter's Angel, wrasses, and and other cool livestock and inverts in clean tanks. I talked to the guy Corry (sp?) that maintains the saltwater stuff there and he does a great job and has actually setup and maintained a personal reef tank. I noticed a previous reviewer that said this shop helped her figure out what was wrong with sick livestock she got from Petco. This is an issue no matter where you get your fish from. Everyone is buying from the same wholesalers. I've gotten sick fish from outstanding shops, its' a risk you take as illnesses don't always show up right away. You need to properly QT your fish before putting them in your display and observe them before you buy them to make sure they are eating properly and not showing signs of illness.

These guys are awesome! Fish are well taken care of and they give so much guidance and information.read more
