Thanks guys! Hope everyone enjoys. Illinois doesn't usually get much airplay in the reefing world, but things here seem to be hotter than ever. :)

Nice pics.

If it wasn't going to be an arctic tundra here tomorrow and Tuesday I would take a look at them (( live close to a couple of those places )), but might have to wait a bit --- haven't bought any new corals in a long time.

If you buy that red/purple stripe with green rim blasto, I'll come hunt you down! Lol. I'm kicking myself for not bringing it home. And if it's still there the next time I get back up there, it'll def be mine.

Is that the one from ReefWise? Easy to swing by on my way home from work --- Hmmmmmmmm. ;)


Joking -- been slacking with the water changes on the tanks, need to be good for a month before I purchase any corals.

Nope, it was at the Reptile House. I don't remember seeing blastos at Reefwise, but I know they are getting a new boutique shipment this week from their FB posting. Every store had several corals I would love to have bought. I did buy one coral, but honestly didn't plan to buy anything as I was focused on checking out these stores I've never been to, and taking photos.

bump for the weekday crowd!

Wow! Nice pics.

They all do have really nice stuff. I'm personally a fan of Reefwise you can't beat their prices and on top of that they always make you feel like your important and trying to help even if it cuts into their profit they would rather see you be successful in this hobby then spend all your money

I sure do miss home!!! Places here in AZ don't even come close.. The trading market alone with local reefers is great in Chicago.

Awesome trip u took there.

I've been to all those stores but not in one day!!!

Reefwise takes my vote for the top spot. Those troughs filled with rock and corals are awesome!!!
