The reason I drove back down to Orlando a week after Reefapolooza Orlando

[Billldg]

While I was down in Orlando for Reefapolooza Orlando, THANK GOD IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED, LOL, I always visit my favorite stores. One of which is Top Shelf Aquatics. I usually go there for the corals, but I noticed that they had a few Achilles tangs in their fish tanks. WELL, I had thought it to be lost to me as Hawaii closed, and most vendors at the time weren't getting them. TSA was getting them from Tahiti, and thus, weren't effected. I wanted to buy it right then and there, but couldn't as I had no were to put it and my QT tanks weren't set up at home. I asked Jed what they keep their copper level at in the tanks and he responded 2.5 cp. Well, that made it easy for me as I also keep it there, and as long as the fish is kept in 2.5 CP, the QT'ing process doesn't have to start over. It was a done deal. I ordered an achilles tang thru Jed at TSA and drove down the following weekend to pick it up. A few weeks later, it was thru QT and in my DT. Such a beautiful Tang. Having to drive 600 plus miles back down to Orlando to pick up the fish, some people may think I was crazy...WELL... to me it was well worth it and I will do it again in a heartbeat!!!

Thank You Jed and Top Shelf Aquatics!!!

Gorgeous fish, congrats on a great find! I am so, so grateful I live a lot more than a 600-mile-trip away from Top Shelf Aquatics, the stock I've purchased from them online is the best I've ever found, and it's much easier to limit my online shopping than when I'm in a store. If I ever got to visit them in person I would probably spend my full credit card limit (and consider it a steal)!

I live about 45 mins. from Top Shelf. It’s a candy store for sure. Got my Clown Trigger, French Angel, and Emperor Angel there. As for 600 miles round trip for a fish... well... I did it to see Dylan, so why not? Lol.
