Is this on par with other petco stores? I’ve emailed petco corporate about the poor quality of their tanks and literally not received an email back or an acknowledgement.

Unfortunately, they are the only place close to buy clean up crew in a pinch but I hate supporting them.

Twice now I’ve purchased CUC and tested their water and the salinity is around 21-23 ppt. I’m sure they intentionally keep the salinity on the lower side to save money and “reduce stress,” but this low?!? Today I took some photographs… warning dead fish picture attached. :-( He looked really pretty too… I love the Naso Tangs.
