Thumbs up

Just got home from there. That was my first time going there and let me tell you it won't be my last. Very nice people, and great prices on there corals. I highly recommend paying them a visit.

HOLY COW!!!! is the most polite way i can put it. i have never and i mean never come home with such a big box of stuff. every killer was a 'oh my god look at that' even with the box i took it doesnt look like i even made a dent. the sps is by the far the hottest shipment i've seen. every piece fully extended, rich color and no sign of death. there was even a colony with a family of acro crabs. i got some wicked rhodactis and zoas for the new tank too. i gotta say the pics do not do justice. absolutely well worth the drive to see guys.

Makes me wish I lived closer, i guess I'm just gonna have to hope that one of the shops here buys from the same supplier and gets some of that great coral here sometime soon.

Colin,
It's always a pleasure watching you 'like a kid in a candy store' checking out every coral and making decisions . You may have to sign up with Keith for meetings in the future I am glad you claimed those Rhodactis because if you hadn't you know where they would have ended up
You picked some fantastic pieces!!

Default Some New pics

We wanted to thank everyone that came out to the store today. We really didn't expect to have such a busy day and thank you all for being patient while we were running around

We did manage to get a few more photo's this evening. I do agree that the photo's don't do the colors justice but it does give you an idea













Thanks for looking

Default Dan and Nicki at AA

Yes, I agree Haloreef does need a intervention. His problem is coral. When he comes home from the store he is " Happy as a clam " "Guess what" he says - an proceeds to educate me on coral and bugs in the water etc etc. (I groan but he can seem to hear me)
If he is not at the store he's saying " I have to check canreef, it will only be a minute" Well a minute in his head is 45 minutes for the rest of us!
-obviously dinner gets cold as hes checking out canreef
-House work does not get done. Coming home late 3 to 4 days a week, because he's at AA.
-He was only was able to get two snow tires onto his car, well thats not going to work out to well now - is it?
-he can not remember what day it is !
- not getting enough sleep !
- has only purchased one christmas present - Humph!
- denying he has a problem (while talking to me )and then admitting online he has a problem - sheesh!
I wish I could put a device on the car so it has to bypass the store - I need a "lock" on the computer...oh who am I kidding ...he just went to the "gym" and I can bet he is on his way to AA right now. I will start sending grocery money with him so you can feed him.
bye for now, Wife of Haloreef. ( probablly see you this afternoon as usual , guess you should show me how to work the till! )
