Was there yesterday afternoon. Nice place and selection and everything was well kepted, however the prices are a little up there. Owner is slight arrogant, but o.k. I asked about a 1" Hippo Tang and they told me $89. I bit much. Not likely to visit in the future...

My first couple additions (clowns, hippo, live rock) were bought from them, i really had no problem with them, yes it was a bit overpriced, but they were helpful.
I went back today because i needed some LR and was looking on getting a Cleaner Shrimp, and one guy started pulling LR out without me asking, and then the owner came in and started yelling and that if i want LR to look at it and decide before i take it out, when clearly, i told the guy that i needed live rock but that i was going to look around.
Their selection is pretty good, although it seems that they have pretty much the same fish, just in different sizes.
Some LR seems to have Red Slime.
I really don't think i will stop by there again, unless i'm in desperate need of something that i know they carry. I'd rather wait and take a trip to Greenwich Aquaria, maybe even House of Fish.

He dosn't answer any questions un less you are spending money.He needs to cut back on whatever it is he is doin. His help try some are good some have no idea.Oh well his loss at least 10,000 into it and he could have gottin a peice.To me its all about service and class of which He has NONE.

I've found that the prices at Jawz,Net II are extremely reasonable for the rare exotic selection of fish and corals that they carry. The colorful,quality,absolute health of all stock is more than worth it. Remember the extremely rare stock is expensive. But there are plenty of awsome deals also. Always stocked with dry goods and equiptment too. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and polite.

Wow.....I'm wondering if you are talking about a different Jaws II.

The pricing is ridiculously outrageous & the person that handles the reefing section will take advantage of you if you do not know anything about corals.
Staff is NOT knowledgable in that area..
No there are not any extremely rare corals at this establishment.

I will say that the fish look healthy.
Lou was helpful & does know about fish.

I recentally bought a torch coral with thirteen heads on it,for $150.00 that is less than $15.00 a head if you know your corals you know that is some deal. And two acapora milapora reds @ $50.99 each.
