    LFS's in Pittsburgh

    Have you ever visited Seahorse in Allison Park on route 8 just south of the turnpike, they have some awesome corals most of the time, a decent selection of fish too, but not to many inverts. Sometimes prices are a little high, but well worth the trip. Try the Petland by Elmers the have some...

    New 75 gal tank - set up

    KerriAnn, I have never been to Wet Pets, but I have been to Elmers plenty of times. Just up the road there is Petland which sometimes has a decent selection of corals at reasonable prices. Someday I will have to go to Wet Pets, but 79 would probably be quicker for me. Like others have said...

    I found this on another forum: my clam fell off its rock the other month and completely severed its foot muscle (you can probably find my old post about it with a search). A huge piece of muscle ripped off- and I thought for sure it was dead. But... my clam never showed any signs of stress from...
