By the time I made it toGallery Aquaticain Brisbane Australia, I had already toured so many stores and one great wholesaler that I didn’t think I could get much more excited. Boy was I wrong because stepping into Gallery Aquatica was like walking into the kind of LFS that I would have built myself back in my retail days.
Despite being a smallish space, Gallery Aquatica is run by Cam & Ania, two diehard reefers who have created one helluva retail reef aquarium store environment. The place is packed floor to ceiling with good useful products, tons of fun aquarium accessories, and LOTS of live corals.
I saw more frags at Gallery Aquatica than all the other Aussie reef stores combined, and I loved how they presented and organized their corals. Ania’s passion for the nuances of different coral strains definitely affected me with a reignited passion forRicordea yuma和Gonioporacorals.
令人惊讶的是,我们可以通过参观其他遥远的地方来了解自己的国家和文化,如果您睁大眼睛旅行,礁石水族馆的生活也不例外。Gallery Aquaticawas the perfect shop to wind down my Australia travels, because it provided the most profound comparison with the American reef scene yet, as you can clearly see in the store walkthrough video below.
