Is there anyone who has experiance with any of the places in springfield. I went sunday to Fishman, Aquapals, and Capital Corals to look around. Has anyone bought livestock from them?
 
I have purchased from all of the above with good results I have purchased both corals and Fish from FishMan and AquaPals. I have only purchased Corals from Capitol Corals.
 
I have bought from all three. Usually alittle high on price though. Just happened that they had something i was looking for is the only reason i paid the higher price. Some things are ok on price but 80% of the time they are high in my opinion. I usually head south to STL when im in need of something.

My Clown came from Fishman, still alive 1 year later.
My Molly Miller Blenny came from Capitol Corals about a year ago.
I like both but I think that Capitol corals is better b/c the owner give a personal touch. I could have not been in there for 2 months, go in and he will rememeber my name. Besides, Capitol Corals almost always has the best deals.
I never have purchased anything from Aquapals.
I wish that there was something closer to Jacksonville, then Springfield.
Of the thre, I recommend CC.
HTH!
 
I was a little disapointed in capital. Not much selection of anything and nothing was very clean.
 
I've been very happy with Capital Corals and Aquapals. Any time I think about the markup, i just remember:
i'm only 5 minutes from home.
If i run low on something, it's nice to have them there for restocking
It's nice to have someplace to just go and talk about fishy stuff with someone who isn't working for minimum wage :)

They gotta make a buck to stay in business, so i try to help keep em in bidness. (says the guy who's got a 200gal refugium, heh)
