    Blue Ridge as well. Small place but she will work with you. I love the place for the personal feel to it.
    Have actually picked up a few things in Petco too. Just be damn well sure you know what you are looking at. Chances are they will have it mislabeled. I usually just grap cleaner crews from them.

    Haven't heard of the one in the great mall, or Midwest actually.

    Where is Midwest at?

    Midwest Reefs Theres the website.


    I was referred to them by a lady working in the local petco. I think midwest is great, they have an awsome display tank. To me lots of cool corals, clean store. They also seem to be a little cheaper than everyone else I have found.

    Google Image Result for http://www.salt-city.org/gallery/files/5/MWReefBefore1.jpg

    Thats essentially the whole store, with a few more tanks behind the photograper. I guess all the pictures in that little strip is the store.

    If you didnt look at there website link, the stores in gladstone, MO on N. Oak trafficway.

    UPDATE! I just checked all my levels, the amonia has started dropping, nitrate and nitrites have started rising, PH is stable at 8.2. The phosphate is .5ppm despite using tap water, im getting a Ro/Di system in a few weeks, dKH is 9, calcium is 500+. Im super excited about this! :cheesy:

    All this after only 2 weeks maybe. Im going on a trip for work, hopefully when i get home it will be settled down, ready for more rock.
