Personally i use Greentree across the river. They have been the most helpful to me. But there are a few people whom life the other shops in like Sandy's, Aquatica, And East End.

Nice to finally find some other reefers in the area!

[Jeremy Blaze]

Yes, we are here!

The club has seen a decrease in activity as of late. Several people have gotten out of the hobby, a lot of it is probably due to the drop in the economy. But there are a few of us diehards still!

[obiwanthegoby]

I'm part of the die hard crowd I guess. I'm picking up my 400 gallon acyrlic tank sometime this week when I get a chance.. Work and Finals are kick my butt.

[ellisz]

Definitely a few of us left. COngrats on the big tank! I know another guy putting water in a 180. Only took him a year :)

[obiwanthegoby]

Ah, this will definitley be faster than a year. I plan to have water in it in Feb or March. Wont place fish in it till late next year though, coral first.

[tattooreef]

i guess i would consider myself another die hard , considering my 11 footer is boring me right now! lol

[obiwanthegoby]

I wish I could fit an 11 footer down my stairs.... had to settle on 7 feet to get it down there....

Hey, I did exactly the opposite, moving from Louisville to California three years ago.

Don't know if it's still in operation, , but I used to go to a place called Aquatica, just off Taylorsville Rd.

[obiwanthegoby]

Aquatica is still there, its my place of choice... Todd seems to keep better care of his live stock and he has a lot more choice on the SPS side of things... OH and he built both of my tanks... ;)

[ellisz]

Aquatica is definitely a great place.

[tattooreef]

not sure what you are looking for but i do have a packed full frg rack right now, almost all sps.

[obiwanthegoby]

Looking for some montipora confusa, super man monti, or poker star monti,.... ;)

On a more serious note, Pink or green birdsnest, Orange Staghorn, purple cap....

what do you have?

[tattooreef]

i have quite a few caps , no purple , but several other colors , also some other cool plating peices , and just lots of other random sps, and i do have some birdsnests as well.

[obiwanthegoby]

Love to get a hold of some pink and green birds nest....

What color caps? Plating pieces? I have too much green in my 120...

[tattooreef]

as far as caps i have two different oranges i have a nice brown, i have green with red polyps and green with purple rim. i have a nice yellow scroll , and a very cool plating that is a soft teal with orangish polyps, i have personally never seen it anywhere other than the one in my tank. i have a couple of frags of green birdsnest and could take a frag of pink. like i said i have tons of other stuff as well. if you are interested just pm me and i will give you my number and we can arrange a time for you to come check it out

[ellisz]

Is the teal with orange polyps the one I like and was supposed to get a frag of ? ;)

[tattooreef]

yes it is and i can now get you a frag of it as well mike so dont wig out on me, i left you a pm on lmas as well about some softies , i just dont have anyones numbers. so dont go thinkin i forgot about ya

[tattooreef]

obiwanthegoby i tried to pm you back but it wouldnt go through for some reason, i guess pm me and leave me a number and i will give you a shout

Blah, Blah, Blah Yeah , it's up and running. Minimal SPS loss. I might even let you into the houe to see this one. :rollface:

[Jeremy Blaze]

Now we are talking smack on RC!
