There is yet another new one only a few blocks accross the street from the Queens Center Mall.
When I went in that day, they had brown algae all over their tanks. Wonder how long they will last?

I just took a drive over to the new store and found it closed!



The flyer in front said that they were open but it clearly wasnt. WOuld appreciate their phone number (not in the directory) if anyone has it so I can avoid another uneventful trip.

Thanks!!!

I went today to Ocean Island Aquarium on 11 th Ave today.
Can you say SCORE!!!!
I got me a beautiful Regal Angel from Sumatra (bali)
great guys in there they had a lot of fish loads of powder blues for 49.99

he's getting red sea next week.
I cant wait to get my 450 up now he did have some LPS and only 1 or 2 SPS
I really wasnt looking for anything but he had 2 regals in tank with at least 6 majestics he fed them and both regals ate well!!
he's 4-5" and he only cost me 55.00 plus tax! he packed him with O2 and gave me a styrofoam box.
as soon as I drip him in I'll post some pictures
