    Nano, I know you are a haul from me but I get some NICE acans at "killer" prices as well... Maybe if you are ever in the area drop me a line.

    Here is a link that has what I bought that day. (post #80)

    Frogspawn - $10
    Acan - $10
    Coco - $10
    Favites - Free
    Carnation? - $25
    Frogspawn - Free
    Sea Apple - $20
    Carnation - $25
    Blue Hippo Tang (juvenile) - $35 (Not Pictured)


    Since he told me corals were colt & chili I let him know that that was not true, he's letting me keep them and have $50 credit for next visit. Sea apple died in separate container (luckily not my tank) the first night.

    I guess this place get stuff from "the reef" then sells it to major dealers in the country. I know Tropicorium is one of their customers. I thought they had good deals there, till I went to this place. It's real shady though, they have no ethics, as far as I'm concerned they're con artists and they don't care about the livestock, just the money. Even the fish are in tiny 4"x4" cubes. It's very sad. I've been told that this happens in this industry, it's just hard to see first hand. I didn't realize everything was raped straight from the ocean until after I bought my stuff, makes sense though, since there are no "frags" that are on plugs or anything, just smaller pieces of rock with coral and really big stuff for next to nothing. :|

    Yes I would consider them that. It's not as big as I would have imagined (like Tropicorium) but I guess they move a massive amount of stuff daily so maybe they don't need such a huge place...
