Question on Google
Does this store carry saltwater fish, coral and anemones?

As someone already mentioned, the So.Burl petco does not carry saltwater stock, nor Petsmart in williston. See Gabe, the owner at Pet Advantage, hes a good dude and they have lots to choose from. Also look into Green Mountain Coral in waterbury VT for the rest of your needs

Community answer · Noah Dion · 2018-09-21

Pet Advantage in South Burlington, Vermont has a nice saltwater collection. They usually have coral and sometimes have anemones.

Community answer · Aimee Viens · 2018-09-21

No idea how this store is, since they had their hours listed incorrectly and it was a wasted trip. 🤷‍♀️
