Went to this store about 3wks ago. Was very surprised as they are the biggest I've seen so far (haven't seen many). I don't doubt that they have most any fish you'd think to ask for, and they have a huge section of coral and tank cleaners.

The prices are wicked high compared to any LFS I've been to (even on in Maine where prices are wicked high i.e. $30 for a 1 inch regular toadstool, unmounted).
I mean they do have fully stocked tanks were all corals are $20 or $40. That's cool. But regular sun coral for $60...instead of the usual $40 is a bit steep.

Also, I wish they were a vendor here.
Either way, the staff is nice. I didn't have to ask anything technical. They also do a lot of educational and charitable work according to their website. I spoke to a manger and he confirmed that, though I don't have any details on it.
