Here is the AE site. Aquatic Environment
No salt at Rowe. Pet Depot over by Walmart in Moline has Salt water stuff, but his tanks are not in good shape at all. Bad algae and cyano bacteria problems. He is running them with HOB filters so they are very dirty.
Adam (AE) is really pretty good on stuff, his prices are higher then I want to pay, but still not as bad as some I have seen. I have found that Adam's prices are not set in stone either on the corals and stuff, if you want something make him an offer. More then once he has moved on price for me.

ROE has salt just no saltwater
. If you look real hard they stock a hydrometer and a bag of IO that looks like its been there for 5 years.
I have talked to both of the guys that run Pet Depot trying to help with the tanks. There both hard core FW hobbyest but I asked the owner if he had ever had a SW tank before and he said "Yes". I was like "Sweet what kinda of setup was it?" He said "It was like 85(as in 1985) it was a reef tank leather corals some fish." He describe some kind of wet/dry filter with lava rock and a sandbed. No skimmer. Sounded VERY old school. Anyway I hope those guys will at some point turn those SW tanks around I like dealing with them.
Teske's in Moline has small selection of SW fish available and the one I got from them have been heathly. Next to no coral, I think an employees sell their personal frags. It is the best place in town to get LR.

I do like the guys at Pet Depot, but shy from buying anything there until the living arrangements for the SW fish are better. The tanks really need to be connected with one large filter system, he is adimant about not connecting them as he says it is too risky. He told me about his old tank too, its funny where the hobby has gone in the past 15 or 20 years.

If I ever want a puppy I'll know where to go... which won't happen!
I just finally got the one I had to run away and not come back! lol I know he used to have a ton of freshwater stuff as well as lots of aqariums, stands and hoods in stock, although not for any cheaper then anywhere else.Similar threads
