Is anyone familiar with what the LFS selection like in these areas? I'm moving there on the 10th and am looking forward to getting a tank back up and running :)

I used to work for Sea Splendor Aquarium (1650 N Texas St, Fairfield, CA (707) 426-6622) and they are pretty good. I haven't been to the new location (living on the other side of the country now and all), but their saltwater selection (fish, coral, inverts) was pretty good, and a nice assortment of freshwater fish. Small plant selection, and not into the specialized freshwater shrimp or anything though. But there are always willing to special order anything they don't have if you ask. Paula (owner), Evan, and Chris are all very knowledgeable and helpful.

If you do stop in, tell them Jacob says hi ;-)

Heading to Travis? I grew up near there.

This place is really good. http://www.aafish.com/ but it's a tad further than you may think. SF is even further. Not out of reach though.
