Default Best Store for Live Plants in Atlanta

Hi everyone.

I just moved to Atlanta last week from the bay area of California and looking for LFS's that have high-end plants, equipment, and exotic small freshwater fish. Anyone have any recommendations? Any stores here carry ADA products?

Thanks

The only place I have seen in the US that carries ADA is http://www.aquariumdesigngroup.com/ . As for plants or shrimp, I usually either trade on one of the plant boards or buy off of http://www.aquabid.com/

sorry naysayers but hands down the best selection of live plants and small oddballs in Atlanta is Petland Duluth. they carry at any given time at least 100+ species of true aquatics (anubias petite,blyxa, mryio matogrossense red..) (no mondograss, no purple waffle etc..) also carry consistantly amano shrimp, cherry, tiger, plus whatever other neo-caridina sp. they can get there hands on. also true and false SAE's etc... not the best for dry goods other than seachem but the the fact that they have a solid base of AGA members bringing in their booty really makes them worth the stop.

I'm with Ron. I'm a pretty new member, but had a blast at the meeting I went to. You won't regret it!

Dino and Brian bring plants to almost every meeting, The fall auction (Nov. 5th) will have 100's of plants for sale. What kind of small fish are you looking for. I import lots of Dwarf cichlids and other small fish from Peru and Brazil. Just got a shipment in yesterday with some nice rummynose tetras, Dicrossus and Apistos. Ken
