They are ok. Very cheap cured LR, if I remember correctly.

I have lived in Lynbrook for 10 years, have driven by there 100 times and never knew they existed until a few weeks ago. They seem to have a nice selection.

I was their yesterday, wasn't worth the trip. They had a descent selection of fish. Not much in the way of dry goods. I asked a worker for "frag glue" and he handed me aquarium sealant

Did you end up going out their JP?

Can someone please summarize the additions and deletions to the LFS Database here on the site and I will make the necessary changes? Please PM me the details.

Also, if anyone has storefront details that would be great as well.

Yes I have. The fishes are ok but they have no corals whatsoever.

I know this is the LI forum, but I recently went to "H20" on Queens BLVD.. They had a good selection of fish and a suprisingly great selection of corals, SPS, LPS. They had a couple of clams, but they were $200.00 and up.

	SPS Small Polyped Scleractinians - Sometimes known as Small Polyped Stony corals. These are hard corals that have extremely small polyps. They are typically on the difficult side and require Metal Halide lighting or dense Power Compact or T5 arrays. These corals are prized for their rareness and ability to be easily fragged into multiple colonies.

	LPS Large Polyped Stony corals – In the aquarium hobby this is a common division of the species of stony corals based upon the visual assessment of the size of the polyps. Corals in this category were among the first stony corals to be kept successfully in captivity and include many very beautiful species. Commonly kept Genera include Euphyllia (hammer/frogspawn coral), Favia (brain coral), Plerogyra (bubble coral), Lobophyllia (meat/tooth coral), and Caulastrea (candycane coral). LPS corals also include the popular solitary non-colonial stony corals such as Fungia (plate coral), Cynarina (button coral), Trachyphyllia (open brain coral), and Herpolitha (tongue coral). Like their SPS counterparts, LPS corals require good water quality, intense lighting of the appropriate spectrum, adequate water movement and regular supplementation of calcium.
