Oyster Eggs, Order/Flat Rate Shipping split

[BryanJ]

Anton they are selling DT oyster eggs here in Green Bay at Aquatic Imports no need to go to Chicago. I know some people hate the owner but he is also going stock cyclopeze in the near future. Sorry guys he is starting to conform to our ways and believe me he is not taking the conformation well. Still giving the internet hooey speech but he is starting to stock whatever foods you ask for. Just buy what you need and get out, no need to chit chat we alll know his view and after seeing his filter system downstairs I know he does not practice what he preaches. Giant skimmers, qt systems, remote sandbeds with live rock its all down there. Even heard him promoting T5 over VHO lighting the last time I was in there. It is getting scary I think we broke him a little.

Nooooooooooooo!
I liked it soooo much better when he could be despised for his views.
Now I have to find someone new to complain about. Hows the new staff at Advanced doing?????

I like Jeff, I really do, but when he argues with me that brown jelly infection is nothing more than the tissue rotting away and nothing more, I have a hard time keeping my mouth shut...especially since there's been so much research done on it lately and rotting tissue doesn't spread to other corals.

Been to Just Pets yet? You can learn new advanced knowledge like Anthias are great fish to put in your 55g tank that nothing is living in...

 

[jandlms]

Just pets? Is that Craig's place down in Appleton?
It seems that whenever a store opens up they are just hiring anyone who can bag a fish. How about the workers actually have to read up on the livestock when the store is not too busy. I know its a radical concept, but.......

 

[RCS]

Workers? Ha! nuh uh....this is the MANAGER.

You're right, it is Craig's place. I've been rather disgusted the last couple times I've gone in there...the animal care seems to be going in the toilet for the most part. And it smells something fierce in there.

I was looking at a fish they had...asked how much (since nothing was priced) and the manager told me "I think it's $37.99..." and walked away. He didn't seem too interested in confirming the price for me since I wasn't entirely trusting with the on-the-fly price he came up with...

So, needless to say, I went next door to PSP (who, incidentally, seem to be doing fairly well with their animal care) and bought the same fish for $19.99...

 

[jmkarcz]

Yeah... except, anywhere that has small animals, when they're not busy their cleaning cages and stuff.

Craig is... much like a man I work for... barks orders, then, doesn't remember giving them. Power can do that.

Jeff converted another 1/4 of his store to salt. A whole nother Isle. Some of his Large Percs looked stressed. but otherwise he got a Ok rating in my book, and an A for effort. Must be Lisa's doing.

Huh?

When I said manager, I didn't mean Craig either. I haven't seen Craig in there for a long time. This is another guy...never got his name.

 

[jandlms]

SHort chubby guy with chin fungus and very little initiative? Jason and I may have met him a couple of weeks ago.
They have saltwater fish next door? What about corals?
jandlms

 

[RCS]

No corals yet...they're not really set up for them right now. But, they have signs plastered all over the place that they're coming (along with live rock! whoo-hoo!). We'll see how well they actually do.

Sounds like you've got the right guy. Not very friendly and/or customer-oriented?

 

[BryanJ]

His new staff is made up of newbies but they seem eager to learn. Now that pet adventure closed I think his buisness doubled and he plans on taking full advantage of the situation. If he starts carrying retro lighting kits it's all over but the crying.

 

[jmkarcz]

I know. I'm educating them right now.

Anton they are selling DT oyster eggs here in Green Bay at Aquatic Imports

Thanks

 

[jmkarcz]

FWIW and this isn't gospel, but I was in there thursday night, asked an older lady, she said no, when I asked. They were not listed on the sheet above the freezer, that's how I ended up with a frozen bar of cyclop

 

[RCS]

I swear they had a sign up there above the freezer when we were in there last weekend.

 

[jmkarcz]

AND YOU WERE RIGHT. Jeff does have them for the 20$ for the 1 oz. and that is like not paying shipping.

Jon and I each bought 1. I guess that means We're out. But everyone knows where to find them. Thanks to you observative people, we saved some jack. (hope kiowa dosn't read this.)

[kiowascout]

too late

yer busted

 

[Lishoop6]

sharon is the name of the older lady
and jeff is considering hireing someone to make a web site
there are lots of books and magizines that we are encouraged to read whenever we have a moment
as soon as the last wall of fresh is sold it turns into salt

 

[Lishoop6]
