Yeah I just checked them out. There in FL where I live so makes me feel a lot better.
They are out of stock at this moment but the site allows you to get on a waiting list. Money is def an issue so I'm torn between what you have or just go with some black which I think are awesome too.

Well saltwaterfish.com has given me full store credit for my loss. I guess that is about as much as one could hope for. $ refund would have been nice but I understand the businesses perspective of things. They do want to keep our monies once they get a hold of them. My lfs now has some nice snowflakes and picassos. Timing is everything. But I have the store credit to spend. And as nice as the lfs is they couldn't give that 15 day guarantee. A guarantee that I think is very respectable. I do think its important to support our lfs's but...
My lfs gave a possible reason for the loss. My tank is in the showroom in front of my cabinet shop where I spray toxic lacquers and other such things. But only the clowns were affected, other fish and corals seem to be fine. I do dose alk and calcium regularly.
Final analysis: I will keep them bookmarked after spending my credit. The problem was handled in a timely and professional manner.
What are your thoughts on the exposure of airborne vapors acting upon my tank? My fuge is mostly covered the display is not.
