The westside kind of has slim pickings as far reef stores, but I like the Aquarium in Culver City. Not too much on the high end side, but the people there are very friendly and a great service company.
Medusa in West LA has nice LPS's
Tongs in FV has a great selection of fish. I've heard their rep on their quality, but I've always had good luck on all the fish I've bought there. I think the key is SLOWWWWW acclimation regardless of where you buy your fish and coral.
Age of Aquarium in Signal Hill was a great find for me. I like how they carry a lot of the ORA clowns and customer service is terrific.
Ali at Amazing Aquarium and Reefs is a cool guy. I like the fact he likes to talk shop and he carries higher end corals.
Oh yeah...I gotta give a shout out to Total Fish and Pets in Alhambra too just for the fact that they are the ONLY reef store near my office. It has a nice little sps/lps tank that they actually SELL out of!!!
