Liquid Kingdom was a pleasant surprise for me. I admit I was not expecting much since I had never been there before. It turns out they have been in business for 25 years, so I am sure the local saltwater enthusiasts know of them already. They are located at 6470 W 120th Ave, Broomfield, CO 80020. Their hours are Thursday & Friday 12-7, Saturday 12-6, Sunday12-5, Monday 12-6, and closed Tuesday and Wednesday. As a family run store, it has that comfortable lived-in feel. Some of the tanks could use a cleaning, and not all of them had livestock. They are a saltwater only store, so they have everything a salty could need. This is one of the few front range stores centered around saltwater fish, and it sure is refreshing to enjoy a wide range of beautiful fish! Mind you, they have beautiful corals too!
Almost all the tanks have loads of liverock and the few display tanks look like a slice of the ocean! I like how they use seashells to aquascape with. There’s everything a saltwater enthusiast would need here, minus the high-end corals. Tom and Deborah, the owners (father and daughter), are so friendly I will probably return regardless of not having a saltwater tank. Tom said anything you don’t see in the store like big tanks or lighting can be ordered and received rather quickly. They did not want to waste space when they could have fish tanks instead. My pictures can tell the story of this store better than I can, so see below. I absolutely recommend adding this LFS to your fish crawl list, esp. if you like to see ocean fish.
