Going to be heading up to Leesburg, VA around Easter. Any good LFS that anyone could point me towards?

Lets see, In bowie theres one that is actually a comercial breeder for angelfish, can't remember the name, but they advertise in the back of TFH. In Bladensburg there is one, or used to be. I havn't been to either one of these in years, so don't know where they are, just general areas.
The real place to go is the baltimore area. The Aquarium center in randallstown, exit 18b off the baltimore beltway, is absolutely awesome. There is also exotic aquatics in north baltimore, and house of tropicals off of route 2, just off the baltimore beltway. Bring a big cooler, lots of money. These places have an awesome selection of stuff you just don't see anywhere else in the baltimore, washington area.

Rick's in Frederick is good, kinda overpriced though and some of the staff can't spell "fish" but great fish, very healthy, lots of monsters.
Winchester Aquarium and Pet Center is nice too, not much selection, but sometimes they have some great monsters, very reasonable prices too.
But from what i've heard, Scales can't be beat. I've never been there, but as soon as i get my license....

Scales is okay, it's very big and clean but their fish are overpriced. Best store hands down is exotic aquatics in baltimore but it's probably a 2 hour drive from leesburg.
