    Sorry for my laziness. They had .75 cent drinks at the bar last night, and I can't seem to find your latest layout. I just wanted to make sure you left room for cold food storage.

    Note to self....Mike cant work on Sundays! LOL -just kidding

    There is not one in the layout. I don't know what kind of freezer/fridge we are getting so I didn't show it anywhere. There is actually a lot of room up front. We will figure it out

    I won't be going to the Saturday night special again. Telling me I can have all the drinks I want for .75 cents each, is like giving a kid a gun to play with.

    Contact either Reef Nutrition or DT's phytoplankton. The terms to get one of their refridgerators is different. http://rn-retailer.pbworks.com/f/Refrigerator Agreement.pdf Dennis doesn't have his refridgerator application online.

    (There might be other companies that supply refridgerators).

    You're still going to want a small freezer though too.

    Thanks again Inwall!


    Well we had our telephone cable and internet installed today.
    The asbestos company took the sample (we will get the results in 5 days)
    Still haven't received any info from USDA

    But we have exciting new things happening within the next two weeks:)

    I will keep you posted!

    Feel free to PM me about any Reef Nutrition advice. I can give you specs on our Display cooler :) Thinking about placement now will save head aches later. I much prefer to plan the layout in advance (I've helped quite a few stores get off the ground).

    Hikari used to supply small counter top freezers.

    I think H20 Life SF Bay Brand, PE, etc all do.

    Not sure if or what any one else charges though. Ours is done on a one year contract and you simply commit to buying X amount a month (plus pay shipping). It's not some small desktop unit though, it's a bit larger. If you want to see one in person we've got them in numerous stores in CO, like AquaMart.

    BTW, since you're just in the process of getting licenses and the like, you've likely never seen how a wholesaler works. I thought it might be useful info.
