REWARD for info on Sabatage of a LFS

[JRaquatics]

I went to Exotic Aquatics in Highland Indiana over the weekend to see how there show tank was doing and to check out there current stock. Last time I was there I did see a decline in their corals health for unknown reasons. I was told by Kurt (owner) that his coral tank had been sabotaged. While pulling out dead corals and routine maintenance he found a number of pennies throughout his display tank. The copper pennies were completely oxidized almost to the point of being unrecognizable. Kurt has been so frustrated the past few months as he watched his prized corals and future profits/sales die off one by one.

Not only did he find pennies in his display tank but also in all his upper reef tanks which are unreachable to young children. He stated this is defiantly sabotage and he is willing to give a reward to anyone with information of who has been placing pennies in his coral tanks.

This is a very childish and sad thing for anyone to do. These are live sea creatures and a lively hood for this store owner and friend.

If anyone has any information about the pennies being placed in their coral tanks please call 219-972-3650.

That is such a stupid act for someone to do. Have him try to remember any disgruntled customers or I hate to say this but, other Lfs's that may have a beef with him....Sorry to hear about this, I hope they catch whovever did this and .....use your imagination.......:mad2:

That sucks. Although I have only been there once, his tanks were very nice. This does sound like something perhaps another rival would do. I just can't see a random customer do this and I don't think a punk kid would be smart enough to do something like that. This is the first I've heard of such a thing, but I'm gonna guess it's very bad to have pennies in a tank? This sounds like someone knew what they were doing. Good luck, I would have made a police report.

I haven't stopped into EA lately, so I am not sure. Last I heard is that Kurt and Jimmy thanks everyone for the comments and support.

I still haven't had the chance to stop in there. The bikes in the shop and just can't drive the guzzler around joy riding like the bike. Maybe today, I have a dentist appointment in hammond.

I didn't get the bike bact until almost 6 that day. It was in for it's 20,000 mile service and the rear tire was flat.
