Of note Red's sells fresh water only. I checked.
 
Mine is on the way home from work/10 minutes from my house. It’s kind of a problem. I go at least once a week. There’s always something I’m out of or need… and then I see a coral/fish/invert I have to have. It’s a vicious cycle.
 
I go on my lunch breaks usually once a week to 2 different stores. So 2 times a week. It keeps me more interested in the hobby.
 
since the nearest 5 are in a different country, yeah.


So when you go, you stay for months? And bring out all the camping gear? Fire pit and all? Haha! :D

I used t visit the local store almost weekly basis. Now I only head there just to grab dry goods, otherwise I end up buying corals and fishes and it can get out of control haha..
