Yep, I am less less than a block from you Lerios

Have any of you been to Berkel Marine? Its not a bad store actually---a bit overpriced on the dry stuff but he has some good invert prices ($19 cleaner shrimp, $1 ceriths, etc)-softies and LPS look healthy, fish are ok looking. The only problem is they are only open 9-5 m-saturday.

Thanks I've been meaning to check out the store but like you the hours suck

I thought Berkel Marine closed down? Are they still open or did they move? Are they on Northern Blvd in LIC?

He reopened earlier this year on 43rd st and ditmars. Its a nice shop actually, friendly owner. Hours SUCK though. I can only go on Saturday. I ONLY know because another Astorian told me about him, and he is listed as a Tunze dealer on their website.

Just wanted to great every one.

I just got back into reef keeping and recently moved to Astoria.

I have a 29g that I am in the process of stocking.

I want to get a set up a sump but have not found an overflow I like yet.

Berkel Marine was on 39th ave next to Queens Plaza and I thought Alex(Owner)was moving somewhere else.He knows Steve from WWOF.Very small store and pricey but nice staff.

the place on 46st only sells dry goods now. When it did have live fish it was 95% freshwater. Its pretty lame now though

WASABI Ya'll!!!!!!!!
I'm on 42 between broadway and 31ave, and only 8 mins walk from Steve's!!!

I just started cycling my modest 46G bow that I purchased at WWOF! Steve's the Booyakasha Bombdiggidy Shizzlelastic!! I can't wait for my green light, so that I can FedEx some crazy Stuff from my system in Miami, as well as buy some of Steve's Coral Crack Addictions!

Best, and hoping to meet some fellow reefaholics soon!
