Pity that they still support back yard breeders.
What's a "back yard breeder" ?

I think they might even be getting into the Eshopps line of skimmers as well. For those of us into seahorses there are a bunch of medications there commonly used for SH treatment. I was even able to find Methylene Blue which I have not seen in any store for years.

LOL, he's joking.....

I'm talking about the puppies.......I don't support stores who support irresponsible breeding.

But this thread isn't about that. Okay ?

The seahorse thing made me laugh. The koi pond certainly does look like it will be impressive.

Ok. But I wouldn't support them either, if this thread was about that. Which it's not.

How big is the salt water section compared to their old one? Also, is the store 100% up and running again or did you guys get a sneak peak?

Is it safe to buy livestock from them yet or should I wait a while?
