New shop in Kenmore?

Has anyone been here yet? They say they are having a "frag party" in mid July. Does anybody know these people. Just curious to see if it's worth stopping by at all.
 
It's at the end of the street that I just moved onto, but I haven't checked it out yet. I'll probably stop in this weekend and attend the frag event in July.

Does this "guy" or place have a name, or do we have to guess?

Scratch that...CJ beat me to it by a minute...
 
My brother went to high school with this guy i met him a few times. pretty decent guy. When I stopped in he had just opened and didnt have much in yet except for a small 40 gallon with softies and a bunch of wall tanks with fish. Looks like he as ok prices and the quality is good so far.

That is one of the oddest things I've heard lately. :crazy1:

Pretty smart I think. He gives 10% off your first purchase when you add him to face-book. Its mass advertising for next to nothing. Ive seen reef2go.com adds all over face-book. All they have to do is write a promotional or sales message on their face-book and it is seen by every one who has friend-ed them, and their friends and their friends friends and so on.
 
IMO I would rather pay that 10% then have the advertising and spam on my FB page...but that's just me...not trying to start anything.

Definitely watching this thread...be cool to have another quality LFS in the area.

I hear ya. I dont even have facebook because of the childish things that happen there. But I do use the fiances account to keep in touch with family and play bejewelled LOL

I personally think its not the greatest area for an LFS but I hope the store does well. It will be nice having another quality LFS in the area.
 
Stopped in today, doesn't have much of anything yet. It's a very small store, didn't see any hardgoods and not sure if he'll have them.
 
Any word on how this store is doing? Planning on a trip from schenectady just want to see and hear thoughts.
 
I'd call the store to double check their hours. I went up on a weekend afternoon and it was closed. I noticed that the tank lights were off on the day that they were closed, so they might not have coral in stock.
 
I was in there last week not too much goin on yet wall tanks with fish and a few coral so live rock that's bout it. At this time I whould not drive from schen to come to this store in less yer planing on visiting the store in tonawanda there my fav.
