[Murphs205]

i was in Amherst today ,,,thought i would run to the Ben Franklin store , down stairs is Neptune Cellar fish store ,,,for the many here that dont
know about them ,,,they have a real nice saltwater selection !! about 15-20 tanks some nice zoas, real nice blue mushrooms ,some common corals, some common fish , some not so common fish , good prices , not too bad to check now and then looking for "whatever" type stuff ,,,,, they have been in that same spot for 40 years or more ,,,,,, my mother used to get her saltwater fish from the 20 some years ago ,,,,,, they are still around and doing good ,,,, neat place to go check out ,,,cool five & dime store ,,,,,, one of the last around im sure of that ....its like Hobby Town that you would see at the malls ,,,,but stuck in the 50's-60's !!!! cool place ..................

never had any one of his corals ever live in my tank. and I spent a fortune there till I learned.

Everything I have ever bought there over the years has always done well both SW and FW, have not been in there in at least a year though, sounds like a Friday night outing the wife and daughter love the entire store

Ive been in a few times. Never saw much for coral. Not knocking him at all I've just never seen much other than a few softies. His fish look pretty well cared for, and it is a neat little store upstairs also.

Tank prices always seemed very good.

Ive been there a couple of times and the prices always were good. And ive never had trouble with anything ive bought.

Jason's nitch is harder to find livestock in both salt "and" freshwater. More often than not I've got to ask him "what kind of fish that is" since I hadn't seen one before.
