Here is the list of pet stores I hit when I travel to Boston,
Tropic isle - Rte. 9 Framingham. Lots of fish some Corals priced somewhat high.
Lovely pet - Qunicy. Ok selection of dry goods, Fish and coral are hit or miss. When they have Fish and Coral stock they are loaded. The past few times I have gone tanks have been empty of fish
Petco - Cambridge Behind the science museum across from Best Buy. it's ok but not worth the stop.
Petco - Saugus Rte. 1. Don't bother few salt tanks stall is clueless
Petco - Peabody Rte 114. Don't bother few salt tanks staff is clueless
Petco - Woburn. Ok selection of fish and Coral, hit or miss
Unique Aquaria - Tewksbury. You really need to stop here. Brandon and staff are very knowledgeable know their stuff. A good selection of dry goods and frozen food, lots of hard to find corals and fish and lots of bread and butter fish and corals. Brandon and staff don not try to sell you things you don't need. Brandon ha
Love the reef - Keep your eyes open for this place which will be opening mid April his corals are amazing. Archit is a straight shooter and knows his stuff.
Aqua addicts - Pelham NH. Good selection of dry goods and corals. You do need to hit them at the right time or their fish stock is light. He does have a great selection of frags at good prices,
Oceans under glass - Salem NH rte 28. Good supply of fish, ok supply of coral, good supply of dry goods, huge supply of frozen and live food including a selection of different pods. Great price on OI and reef crystal salt.
Jays Aquatics - Salem NH. Huge selection of dry goods, some frozen food, Huge selection of coral, good selection of fish. Really a hard place to find but worth finding.
Petco - Salem NH - Just ok I usually skip them
Pet City - Seabrook NH on Rte. 1. Small selection of SW fish and coral. Again you need to hit them at the right times or their tanks are empty. I usually pass by them.
Petco - Portsmouth NH I usually stop here, good selection of sw fish for a petco and some coral.
Little shop of pets - on Rte 1 Portsmouth NH. I haven't been there in a year or so. Every time I have gone tanks are dark and corals have hair algae on them and little stock of fish in their tanks. Last time I was there most of the fish had Ich.
** Keep an eye out at petco for ich and fungus on their fish.

Buried somewhere is a thread for stores in Maine. Perhaps the list above could be added and made into a sticky for future reference?
