EcoGirl22 March 27, 2009 March 27, 2009 So i think the title says it all. Looking for a LFS with fair prices on pep shrimps and emerald crabs. Prefer is its within 1 mile of a Metro RAIL, but will take metro bus if necessary. I live on the orange and blue line in Rosslyn, VA. I can also bike about 3 miles (getting over ankle surgery) from a Metro stop to the LFS.... Anyone know of any mass transit friendly options? THANKS!
DJBoy98 March 27, 2009 March 27, 2009 None that I can think of but if you get Glex/Zip car then you will have more options.

After the silver line is built, there will be. But that's going to be a few years .... See if someone near you is heading out to one this weekend and can either take you or pick some things up for you. A couple of the people that live near me always call around when someone's heading out to offer either a ride or to pick things up.
BigWyll March 27, 2009 March 27, 2009 (edited) I think Pristine Aquariums is within biking distance to Van Doran Station. One pretty steep hill in between. But, it's definately within 3 miles. They are in the vendors section so you can check the address Edited March 27, 2009 by BigWyll

Gadgets March 27, 2009 March 27, 2009 Aquarium One is in biking distance from Rockville or twinbrook metro.
Brian Ward March 28, 2009 March 28, 2009 Aquarium One is in biking distance from Rockville or twinbrook metro. That's definitely a good option. Call first though, they are usually pretty light on shrimp and non-hermit crabs.
www.fishnreef.com March 28, 2009 March 28, 2009 Let me know what you are looking for and I'll bring it in. We're a couple of blocks from Key Bridge in Georgetown. So, that's a 15 minute walk for you. :-) Nadir
PK3 April 3, 2009 April 3, 2009 I have 2 peppermint shrimp that I'm planning on selling and I live steps (1-2 minute walk) from the Dunn Loring Metro. pm me if you're interested.
El Camaron April 3, 2009 April 3, 2009 Aquarium One is in biking distance from Rockville or twinbrook metro. definitely closer to rockville station, would say about 10 minute walk from there but there is one in congressional plaza that would be close to the twinbrook station, they have ok deals, aquarium one is the better one of the two. Also tropical fish world is really close to the Shady Grove station.
Mountaineer April 13, 2009 April 13, 2009 Congressional Aquarium in Rockville. Not right on the red line, but maybe you could take the bus from the metro rail stop to there.
OUsnakebyte April 24, 2009 April 24, 2009 I used to walk from the Red Line to Congressional. (Twinbrook sticks in m mind, but... I can't quite remember). Takes ~10-15 minutes, depending on how fleet of foot you are... Cheers Mike
