I'd like to chime in also if I may, I have been working at a LFS for over a year now, The owner has been in this location 10 years, and doing saltwater for 30. The accounts are what keep us going atm. What has been said here is very true. You will see and be asked about things that will just...

I can see where it might be insulting to some. I also understand the Spanish culture and humor. This ranks up there with Bull fighting, be it in Portugal, South America what have you. It doesn't matter who, where, or what you are someone somewhere will always be insulted about something. They...

Do they both have their hearing?? It's fairly common for white cats to be deaf or have bad hearing. My last cat was a kitten thad had crwaled up into the underside of a pick up heading for New Orleans from Atlanta. Just happened to see him at a gas station.

I have two with a Guiniea Fowl and a Scotts Fairy. No problems at all. The y eat mysis with no problem. The initial period of getting them to eat is critical. After that they are golden. I had one hide for 2-3 days and the other never did hide. I was told that bllod worms may also be used if...

I don't know how many times in a week ppl say, " the size of the tank will control the size of the fish write?" I say " that means that you will get bigger than me if you grow up in a bigger house write??" urban myths die hard

Had a customer come in today with a hippo, sailfin, & a foxface they are several years old and have outgrown the 90 they were in. All 3 came in this morning and all 3 ate this afternoon. Tomorrow I'm going to move all thre to a 312 gallon. There is already a powder brown in there. I'm going...

Does moving the liverock really help attitudes when adding new fish??

The first questions I ask are tank size, fish only? Whats in it atm? Any issues? I made a sheet for recording water results that I give to the customer. It has the readings for 3 tests. Its just easier if they bring it back to watch for trends. How long has it been up and running, lights, flow...

It takes me about 2-3 weeks to ween a Lion off of live to freeze dried or frozen, I let them go 2-3 days then try on the fourth day if they won't hit the krill then I do live. Some are more of a pain than others , but I won't sella Lion or a Puffer if they are not weened. I have a much harder...

This is my 3rd year in sales. My first year in salt water but the same kinda holds true. Sales wouldn't be bad if it weren't for the customers lol.

There seem to be several views on the LFS. True I don't and never have claimed to be an expert. No the store I work at is not the only good one out there. If I don't know I don't know. I call the owner with 30 years exp. in salt water. I have had customers come in and be bent 10 ways out of...

Missed the last track day, workin too much, hoping for the end of May. Runnin an SV650 [hr] . Savin for a Super Duke or the new Ducatti Hypermotard.

Try your LFS I give away our old catch cups all the time. We only net when catching out of the 312 tanks. Its just better all the way around.

Without adding O2, a couple of hours is all I'm comfortable with.

I was thinking the same thing, but it was hard for me to try and explain it without it sounding like I was trying to get a sale. Shreded freeze dried krill in a 20 gallon,,,,,,,,I give it 1-2 days that tank is going to melt down. It still chaps my behind when I think about it.

I'ts been quite busy lately I have had a hard time getting to the boards, sorry. Here is my vent, ready?? hang on. I have a part time job a t a LFS. I treat people the way I would like to be treated. I'm no tooting my own horn here. I would just rather be flat out honest and say I don't...

I'm running a 90 gallon tank with just fish light atm. Next week I'm looking to upgrade to 2x 250 M/H 14k. Is anyone out there running this? If so, are you doing it without a chiller? I am not wanting to chill (too costly) I'm hoping 3 or 4 inch fans will do. Thanks in advance
