Fuji rocks. I love that guy. But one can't just stop in his store for fish/coral. Gotta get his sushi as well Fuji told me yesterday that he's putting an order in soon for fish/coral. He orders sometimes through LA/DD and Quality Marine.

Specialty Pets... Great store and Ron is just awesome. Phil? Not there except after school hours. Ron/Phil posts their special order list every Monday on Facebook. If it's on the list, they can normally
get it. They get their stock through Carolina Aquatics every Tuesday afternoon.

As of yesterday, they still had Ruby Reds in stock.

Inland Reef? I can't bring myself to go in there anymore. I called the ASPCA on them last year and had their macaws confiscated due to poor care. The owner was granted back his birds, but with frequent visits by one of the local rescues (these birds were in bad shape and he didn't care until they were forcefully removed from the shop). I live less than 2 miles away from them and will only deal with Specialty and Fuji

I spoke with a chemist yesterday
about the MCHM. He said the key to complete removal was carbon. As long as fresh carbon was used, the chemical is gone. For the record, he works for CAMC and not the water company or our crooked governor. Lol.

He said our use of RODI on the tanks is perfect. I've done numerous water changes and haven't had a single coral melt or fish die..

We're still not using our water. Only because my children are aged 6, 4, and 3. Not worth the guessing should an illness happen later on. Maybe towards this summer we'll trust the water supply. We were thinking of sending samples of our water out for independent testing, but the coat is pretty prohibitive. Sigh.

I may need to call them and go up on Saturday to get one. I really want one.

 

[Ladysaber]

I would call them this morning. Ron and Dylan should be in.

 

[Ladysaber]

Hey hey! Look at what Kris just posted for shipment next week.. If you didn't hit up Ron today, call him and have him put you down for one for Tuesday delivery

 

[totion]

I didn't get to call today. I work nights until 6 am and slept all day. I've been worn out. I was going to go Saturday but may wait until next week and have them go ahead and order me one.

 

[totion]

Where was that posted at? I checked the fb page but didn't see anything.

 

[Ladysaber]

Carolina Aquatics is on Facebook. You can like them and then you'll see the WYSIWYG stock.

 

[Ladysaber]

It's on their supplier's page

 

[totion]

I'm not actually on fb. But specialties page is public so I can check it lol

 

[Ladysaber]

Hi all! I have to go to Pittsburgh this week to take my son to a dr. appt. someone mentioned to me in passing about a fish store that had $5.00 frag tanks. He also said they were buy 5 get 6th free. I don't know the name of the store he told me. I don't know how to get ahold of the guy to ask him. Does this sound familiar to anyone who shops in the Pittsburgh area? Thanks!!!

You are talking about Aquaworld

They have the famous $5 frag tank and also have. $15 frags in the same tank. You can definitely find done gems in those 2 tanks sometimes
