Denver area lfs

[Fracgorilla]

In the Denver area until Tuesday for work. Would like to check out some lfs on my way back home. Maybe pick up a coral or two. Any suggestions? Don't want to go too far out of my way so looking for something west of I25 and north or close to I70.

Closest to I 70 West of I25 that I can think of is elite reef. If you want a little drive aquamart is another good one but is southwest of your coordinates. You also might want to message AllysonP

they are located in Broomfield which is on the way to Boulder from Denver (on Highway 36) hope this helps. Luckily everything really isn't a terribly bad drive from anywhere in the metro area in my opinion

Editied. Thanks

I am pretty sure Deboy meant next is Aquamart

i agree, Aquatic Art is totally worth the trip. Best SPS selection in Colorado and great prices too! Aquamart is good for some lps, not much for SPS though. Stone Aquatics on Broadway near Hampden has some nice prices too but a very limited selection. Elite Reef and Mind Blowing corals are worth checking out but call Mind Blowing first for an appointment.

I would also agree with mind blowing corals. Good deals to be had there. Also check out our sponsor section to help and take a look at what they do and offer

Thanks for all the input, not sure I can make an appointment at some of those places due to not knowing the exact time I'll be headed home. Guess I'll play it by ear.
