I also have a great LFS. They are very concerned with starting the tank up correctly and not rushing to put fish in. In addition, they have helped me decide what can go with what. When I bring in water samples, if there is a level that is off, they won't let me get any fish. Prices are...

Of course as with almost everything in this hobby, I've seen information that the Foxface can be in a 70 gallon minimum. We are already talking about going bigger next year. Seems to be the trend.
