    So my LFS is closed cause they are moving a few shops down and I am noticing that my body shakes when I think of fish and have no where to shop or look. I pass in front of where the store should be but to no avail the store is closed. They don't post when new store is going to open and all I can do is sit next to my tank in the fetal position cold and sweating like a 8 yr old in a levis factory. I cry my self to sleep and when I wake my only hope it there open but still not open. ahhhhhh I scream as i speed away leaving behind me 20,000 miles worth of tire. Whats a man to do with out his store. I haven't eaten in days and everything looks like a reef shop. They never said it would be this hard. They never said boo hoo hoo boo hoo hoo. :cry:

    But like seriously can't wait for new store to open. it is supose to have 30+ salt tanks and a coral table. But when?

    I know the feeling. My LFS is in a disarrage. They have a lot less tanks, now they are selling gifts things too or God knows what. Tanks don't look as good as they once did.

    I don't know how other LSF are, but mine in my area are kinda rude. I have spent a lot of money there and it's like I get an attitude when I ask questions. As if I should know or I'm bothering them. Kinda pisses me off at times.

    sorry for rude store. I wouldn't know what to do if I had to encounter rude people every time I wanted to enjoy my hobbie. I also know how hard it is to find a store that you like. I guess sometimes you just have to act just as pissed as they act to you. But I always try to kill them with kindness and a joke.
