I was there too and didn't buy anything either, mainly because I noticed that the price on livestock was jacked up. For example, they usually sell Rics for $19.99 each, and the Boxing Day price was $37.00 and $29.00 depending on color of specimen. That totally turned me off and quickly left.

Yeah, it ****ed me off too. That's why I left without buying anything. I know how much stuff cost and don't like to be deceived by stores that claim to give you 30% off but also jack up their prices for that specific sale.

Yup agreed dry goods and equipment they are great can't be beat. But you need to watch them on the livestock.

Follows the rules!
What I went for (fish and snails) were all normal priced minus 30%, but you guys are right! The coral all appeared to be much more expensive and nothing special was there.

They have been that price for a awhile, ($30), since shipment 3-4 months ago... When I started buying them they were 14.95, then they were 19.95 for the last two years, now they went way up. I'm talking about Florida rics, yuma were always more. Fair enough, they are worth what people will pay for them. Vote with your wallet.

I saw Florida Rics for $37 and the more dull ones for $29. They also named some pretty regular corals "Ultra" and and used it as an excuse to jack up their prices.

My complaint is not about the corals being expensive, but rather about the store increasing their prices for boxing day and then offering a deceiving 30% off to bring the price down to what they usually sell them for.
