Where to find Chaeto and Stomatela in the area...

Hey all,

Just upgraded my nano to a 55-gallon system. I'm fighting the algae wars, and would like to find the following.

1. Chaeto: I've heard nothing but good things about it. I've checked the stores close in to the city, and haven't found any, and I don't want to drive all the way to wet pets or seahorse just to find out they don't carry it.

2. Stomatela snails: Had these in my old tank, and I loved em. Reproduced great until they had a weird population crash. I think it was because I was using a hydrometer then, because when I upgraded to a refractometer my salinity was actually 0.030. Anyway, I didn't get any new ones on my new LR, and I'd like to buy some without purchasing from Inland Aquatics if I can help it.

Thanks in advance.
 
I have loads of both. My sumps both have several gallons of chaeto, and both my tanks are crawling with stomatellas.

Ever in Cranberry?

I seem to be one of the only reefers who lives in the city itself (Lawrenceville), and not out in the burbs. :( I work downtown, so if by chance you have a 9-to-5 down here, that would be the ideal dropoff, but I don't see why I couldn't swing out on the weekend sometime. A 40-minute drive up 279 won't cost anywhere near as much in gas money as $40 overnight shipment.
 
I lived in the city for 9 years. It had its moments. But Allegheny Co can burn in the fires, bunch of tax and spend and tax and spend dirtbags.

Anyway, I'm thinking I'll be at home all day Sunday. I'll also be at the zoo Saturday. If you are a member and you're coming to the zoo, I can bring you a package.

Let me know.
