Reef Secrets Aquariums in Gold Coast Australia was one of the few LFS that I ever heard of before going to Australia. But as it turned out it was the last fish store I ended up visiting on my recent tour.
After visiting the very passion-driven Gallery Aquatica, owner Hatfield Darren had a very high bar to meet. However since Reef Secrets is one of the oldest reef-only aquarium stores in Australia, this destination LFS definitely lived up to expectation.
Reef Secrets is probably the LFS that resembled a high quality American reef shop the most, probably due to how long it has been in operation. Despite the similarity, there’s no comparison in the selection of Australian livestock between a domestic marinelife dealer and one on the other side of the world who has to get everything shipped in.
It was an awesome and eye-opening experience to visit so many reef shops in Australia, and it’s incredible how informative seeing LFS in other countries can be about our own reef aquarium stores.
