Just recently started going to this store and wanted to share my experience on Seaside.

The owner, David, and I were talking about a couple high end livestock. Because the store isn't close to me and my busy family schedule on the weekend, I didn't have time to make it up there over the past two weekend. I didn't put down a deposit therefore wasn't expecting David to keep the fish for me. BTW, these livestock were already priced to sell. I finally had time today and stop by the shop and it turns out that he has been holding the livestock for me for 2 weeks. That was entirely unexpected and appreciated.

It's a store that you can't miss in S. OC.

Ha. David is a super cool guy. I hadn't been there in a while, they have a much larger coral selection now. Added a few large frag style tanks in the back with some good pieces and nems.

Awesome store... Just picked up a Blue Spot Jawfish for $40 yesterday. Ive gotten pretty much all of my fish from them. Great prices and always healthy fish.
