Creation Reef & Aquatics

[BiscuitSlayer]

I have had the pleasure to visit a store that recently opened up close to where I live. It is called Creation Reef & Aquatics, and they are located in Woodstock on highway 92 (close to I 575).

I am thouroughly impressed with their store, cleanliness, and attention to detail. They offer a very nice assortment of plants (some of the best I have seen in a retail establishment). Their fish also look very healthy and their prices are reasonable. Like any retail store, there are a few things that are a bit high, but after spending a good amount of time in the store talking with one of the owners, their prices overall are very nice. They have some good deals on tanks for those of you in the area that might be looking for a new tank.

I plan on going back to the store some time next week and asking them if they would allow me to take some pictures of their livesock to post in this thread. If they allow me to, I will post them when I get a chance. The owners are very nice, polite, and helpful. This is one of the better fish stores in the Atlanta metro area as far as I am concerned. For those of you that have reef tanks, they have some nice corals and saltwater fish too. I would say that the store is pretty evenly split between fresh and salt displays.

Biscuit's current rating for this store is 5 thumbs up (out of 5 ).



Edit: They have a website, but it looks like it is still under construction for the most part. Here is the URL:

I agree with what u said about this store. I bought most of the plants in my aquarium and they are doing very well. The owners are very nice and helpful. one of the better fish stores in the Atlanta area.

I went by there last Monday, actually, I didn't have anything going on so I went by a lot of stores. As far as planted tanks goes, this store was #1.

I visited Atlantis, Optimum, Petland(Dunwoody), Asian Tropical, Aviarium, and finally Creation. Creation was definitely the winner when it came to plant selection and health. They also had a great selection of fish for the planted aquarium, including some more hard to find fish.

I just moved from SF, so my home stores were AFA, Albany Aq, and Ocean Aq (some of the top stores in the country for FW Planted tanks). My bar is pretty high. While not at the level of those stores, I will visit Creation again. I can't say that for any other store I went to.
