    Welcome to the reef. How far to the closest fish store with saltwater?
    I grew up around there and don't remember any.

    zooaquatic (closed last month): were in BBurg but moved to Christiansburg (5 min. drive) 2-3 years ago but were trying to move back to BBurg but closed due to the economy (not sure why they moved in the first place but I was always loyal to them for what I saw as better quality and first to give loyalty discounts)

    C&P Pet Shop: Christiansburg near the mall (5 min from BBur) is now the only shop, they typically have a nice selection of your usuall fish and coral but a small selection, occassionally I will see aiptasia on their display tanks which makes me nervous (not sure if this is typical of most LFS

    Ultimate Aquarium (Roanoke, exit 150): I just found this one out today and they seem to have a big selection from what I've seen in photos, haven't made it to the store yet (40 min) but might have to do so when I visit friends

    That's quite a coincidence... we've got 105% humidity in the Old Dominion today (but I wouldn't trade it for anywhere else).
