Just a word of advice....Not really sure this is an appropriate thread for this forum. Could be seen as advertising, which is against RCs rules.

That pretty much sums it up for me. Even with a discount, many of their supplies are 2-3x the cost of what they are online or at other stores.

I set up a freshwater tank for my daughter recently and received horrible advice about stocking the tank from several different employees there. (Although, I was definitely to blame for not researching it more on my own.) As a result, I didn't space out adding the fish enough, and she ended up crying when 3 of her fish died within a month of being added. :(

Plus most of their saltwater fish tend to show some sign of ich or something similar.

I'd go there for fw fish, but ONLY if I thoroughly researched what I was buying in advance.
