hey ronen i havent read the entire thread that you wrote about the lfs screwing with. i am sorry on what happened to u..you have been the only person i dealt with for the past 9 months and will continue to do so..i will only deal with people from this website.i really dont want to deal with the lfs any more (no offense to u aquatic creations i have no idea where your store is lol) every store i went to i was very dissapointed with there was always something wrong there i really dont want to hear any bull crap excuses on how hard it is to run a business my family had plenty of problems in their stores (we own resturants) and you know what we took care of them..if i go to 99 percent of these places and belive me if there are 30 lfs listed on mr i been to 25 of them theres some type of major problem dead fish,fish that dont belong together,ultra high prices a-holes that work there a-holes that dont know what color a blue damsel is lol..ronen and the few people i dealt with here were very good to me and they knew what they were talking about.so there you go ronen i got your back..good person to deal with good to buy from...you might ask well he doesnt have a big lfs so he shouldnt have problems or the people here dont sell the amount of stuff that the lfs sells well then u know what if they cant handle the volume or hire well trained people then dont open a f--ing store whatever..anyway watever im just yapping im snowed out been working 17 hours a day since friday this snow killed me...thanks for hearing me out

FYI

I'm in williamsburg Brooklyn if you get a chance stop by and criticize I always enjoy creative criticism.
It seems you've been in the hobby for a while so if your ever in the neighborhood stop by.

Hey all,

I do a fair amount of purchases and am always looking for more things I can buy for my tank (within limits of course ;)) and I have to say that I only regularly frequent two places. Ronen's place (Deepwater) and Sean's store (Aquatic Creations). I prefer to do business with people I feel are honest and care about the hobby. Both of these guys have taken care of me and if I had any problems, I was looked out for. I go to each for different things and my tank wouldn't be the same without both of them.

Just want to thank you both.

Eugene

Sean, do you offer MR discount or newbie discount. I am new to salt water and eventually wiil need a lot of stuff for my 55G.

Also do you have fresh water stuff? I just get my friend to but a 46G Bow-will also need stuff especially plants.

dood please stop this, today I been reading nothing but ronen's salt buy. Im tire d and i want to see some productive reef discusions, not who is taking who's side while being a consumer, please go to the vendor's review and post it there. with all this free time, i think the hobbiest would have a better knowledge of this hobby trying to understand the hobby better and the animals your keeping in your tanks, other then forming sides and creating controversy in this hobby please stop now. I understand he might be your friend, but keep it in the vendor's review and not here please.

Spykes,

I hear what you are saying. This instance wasn't just drama, some drama but not all drama. Things like this situation escalate prices and slow down the evolution of business. If the trend is moving to home or online providers able to service a certain part of business better, then it should be that way. We should not have to worry about people who are married to the old way of doing business sabotaging new processes out of fear. They need to adapt somehow, refocus their businesses, whatever. This hobby is our thing, right now, we are all responsible for standing behind what we think is right and encourage the good trends. I think the prices we pay and having the right to order how we see fit is as much a part of the hobby as which skimmer you like or whether you dose or not. It certainly will affect what this hooby looks like in 5 or 10 years.

Just stating my opinion, though. I share your sentiment about friends, I make them when I can but it's no skin off my back, either.
