Would you happen to know your LFS's wholesaler? It would be nice to have my LFS order from them.

Thanks man It is in the only spare tank I had laying around, a 12 gallon eclipse. I am working on a new setup just for him though, either a DIY shallow acrylic tank or a 30 gallon or so AGA...

I live in South Florida also.. Which store did you get the O.S. at?

I saw one at Reef Life (5925 Anglers Avenue ââ"šÂ¬Ã‚¢ Ft. Laud, FL 33312). I believe they still have it, if they don't the guy I talked to there said he could get them fairly regularly.

I've heard they have some pretty nice ones at Marinelife Designs in Deerfield Beach http://www.marinelifedesigns.com/index.html . I don't see them on their site, but a friend of mine was there a couple weeks ago and he said they had a big peacock.

I got mine from Oceans Below in the North Palm area, its a pretty cool place. Thanks to everyone so much for the compliments
