Best saltwater fish stores in the area?

[wonderd]

What are some of the best saltwater fish stores in the lower New York region? I am tired of the local petco's and would like to go somewhere that has a big variety of SW fish that will make my eyes light up haha. I live in New Windsor, it about an hour upstate from Manhattan.

^ New World Aquarium is closed.

Definitely Manhattan Aquariums though. Also, look in the Vendor Forum here on MR.

New World Aquarium has recently gone out of business.

Fishtopia in Fishkill may be the closest to you. I have not been there but they supposedly have a nice selection.

Beitals in Pearl River may be OK as well. been years since I have been there.

I goto Beitals once in a while. He always has a decent amount in stock, but I am not crazy about how stocked the tanks are. Seems that he has too many fish in some tanks, and everytime I go there, there is at least a couple of dead fish in the tanks.

Betails is over priced always has dead fish in tanks
Services sucks
He is more a store for tanks he services
Last 3 fish I bought from him died
