Jim, someone said this before. I know he always has a row of empty tanks somewhere, but I counted last time I was in there. It does look like four sometimes, until you begin counting and I counted 47 marine fish without trying to spot every last one. It seems a little more stable than the pet shop on Pearl in Strongsville where the marine fish get sold out the day they arrive, usually on a Thursday.

i must go at bad times, last time i was there the section on the left wall was totally empty and 2 out of the 4 ones in the middle were all empty.. does he get shippments in on certain days or does he just order to fill what people want?

 

[mattyice]

i know he said summer was really slow for him but in the fall and winter he has the best stuff and can get pretty much anything in for you

i know someone responded yes they do...but was that to him having the 210 still for sale?

if someone goes up there today can they let me know the price of it

I was there on Saturday, Had a wedding to goto that was in th same plaza as his store. I'd guess he had maybe over a dozen different fish in stock. It forsure looks to be his slow time. I've been there when he was really stocked up and this wasn't the case saturday.

We've been there a few times and have been impressed he's very helpful! We still haven't figured out the best times to go when the shipments first come in.... We just went last sunday and he had a REALLY nice porite rock with some blue tube worms but someone had it on hold.... Man does that suck!!!! It makes ya say DAMN wish I would have gotten there sooner!!!!!

 

[mattyice]

if you just talk to him about some things you want he can hook you up...i say if we all really want to get something from him we all get a list together of fish/inverts/coral, take it to him, and then he can get usually whatever we want from him without a problem i think he said minimum order for fish is $600 so i guess we could get another thread going for a group buy from there, commit to ordering (so he isnt screwed by people that say they want something and never get it), and I or someone else can take the order up to him and then we pay within a week of him getting it in

 

[Kreeger1]

Is it really worth that hassle?

 

[mattyice]

i dunno when i talked to him he said he can get in practically any fish...i asked him about a feminus wrasse and he said he could get me one easily, if people pull group buys together for dr. foster and smith why not do it for a local guy that has better prices and you dont have to worry about shipping

its up to you guys, i need about another month before i have my tank but my frag and rock bin is easily able to hold fish for me along with corals and inverts
