When I was a hobbyist I was really into the colored sticks, working on getting a sps tank thriving here at work (Schenectady, NY). Not there yet, but getting better.
Now you know how I feel duke. No one around me or if they are there hiding very well. Starting to think I’m the only person in my town with a saltwater tank. And my town is fairly large
Not in ny but nj. There are quite a few shops not that far from the border here. And quite a few in ny city. Peices of the ocean, is located i believe out of staten island and have $20 shipping for the tri state area.
