Salty Fins - salt water fish and coral store at 799 E. Tabernacle Street, St. George

I don't know how I missed it. My wife and I did a quick U-Turn yesterday when I saw the store while driving by on an errand.  Evidently, it's been around for about 5 years. Smile The owner, Jan, is very personable and the livestock looked healthy. She started in the hobby when Tracy had his store, Aquarium Arts over near Albertsons in Washington. (always loved that name; Aquarium Arts).

Just a suggestion.
Referring hobbyists to the Local Fish Stores list (blue button at the left) had been my common practice until recent years. Unfortunately, with the sad closing of A Reef Oasis  Cry  the list has now become outdated to the point of being obsolete.

Aloha,
Mark  Hug

P.S.
Aquarium Arts still exists! Just found it here. http://www.aquariumarts.net If it's Tracy's store, it confirms what I heard, that Tracy moved to Arizona.

Greg Tanner owned a store called Aquarium Arts in Bountiful back in the 90's.  I loved that place.

Oh yeah, that was a great store, just down the street from Bird World Pet Village. I remember buying an awesome piece of lively LR and noticing a tiny Long Spine Urchin on the rock. I asked how much extra that would be and Greg told me, "Oh no, that comes with the rock." Big smile That Urchin grew larger and beautiful.

Anyone around St. George have any comments about this LFS?
