I don't want to buy any sponsorship until we have our livestock filled in. Trust me, as SOON as I can I will. Also with DFWMAS.

 

Good news is...the salt system is running now!

Congrats to you on the store! I wish you a lot of success. Just keep that place well stocked! The thing I hate most about LFS's is empty shelves!!!!! Looks like you know what it takes to have a successful store. Remember...the customer is always right, even when you know they aren't!!!! :lol:

Fish like that would be special order only, but I would still try to advise against something like a pacu or arowana unless I KNEW the customer had a monster tank. We carry community tropical, 14 species of african cichlid, many aquatic plants, and of course some of the cool stuff like discus and oddball fish as well. The fish are all still coming in. Matter of fact, we are getting a FW shipment today.



Well thell be some chics rollen in there....

 

there are indeed. that's one awesome thing about Flower Mound.

Looking good! Guess you got by without a hand over the holidays, offer still stands if something comes up! You guys open this weekend?

Yeah there really wasn't much left in the form of manual labor. A lot of head scratching and pipe cutting/gluing though. Of course we are open. I am off today but I will be there every other day except Sunday. Sunday is for golfing.

Why thank you. I keep all the boxes in the back, because if you are like me and buying a 180$+ piece of equipment , you want that factory box!

 

I had someone tell me earlier it looked like the display in a head shop lol.

You use Instant Ocean for your water?

For the fish only system and the pre-made water, yeah I do. For the coral tanks it's Vitro and RSCP.

 

Hardcore reefers that don't like IO usually make their own water. People who just want fishy to swim in tank tank, don't really care what salt they are buying, as long as it does the trick. Instant Ocean is just fine.

 

Looks good. I would be terrified to do Live Rock in a glass tank though! One tragic cherry pick... :o hehe

 

You point, I grab lol. Ideally it will be switched to an acrylic, but we had a 180 long just sitting there.

Good policy, haha. Glass = Shatter, Acrylic = Scratch. I chose scratch.

Very nice! I highly recommend you carry Ai products though. Just saying.

 

I will for sure. Still setting up all the high end vendors. I like AI better than Ecotech (don't tell Ecotech) so I will definitely carry them.
