But they wouldn't get it lol They like clownfish go figure hopefully they pick something else out though. And I'm not going to do a powerhead most likely so SPS is probably off the table. 4 Quote Link to comment

Coral Reef moved to Johnson City to be next to the company that owns them sustainable aquatics. So I don't shop there that often anymore. Edit: I worked at Aquarium from 09-11 Quote Link to comment

And yes, that's a bit of a drive, lol. I honestly didn't go to Aquarium often, cause Coral Reef was more Reef focused. 1 Quote Link to comment

So some of our employees were not fully experienced on the reef side because they always worked on the freshwater or pond. But we did have a bigger selection of fish and corals then them because our saltwater area was bigger by gallons then there whole store. But they always had some great unique items I shopped there on a regular basis until they moved. 1 Quote Link to comment

Omg, I almost forgot about this, but I got this giant Insane Bobbitt/Eunice worm from Aquarium once!!!! It had been living in some LR in one of the larger Reef Display type tanks. One of the employees got it out of the rock and had it isolated in a Critter Keeper in one of the tanks, and I'm pretty sure they were gonna flush it later after the store closed, but I saw it and talked them into letting me take it. It was huge and awesome, all bronze and shiny and scary looking, musta been around 2 feet long. I mailed it to an N-R friend living in DC who was specifically looking for one and he set up a tank just to house it. It was named Bob. 3 Quote Link to comment
lkoechle Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Well my 3 year old is fascinated by crabs and shrimp, and that's between 4 and 2 So they might like the inverts a lot. He loves the porcelain crabs (just discovered those and I quote "Mommy, they're my favorite!") and hermits. 1 Quote Link to comment
