yea, if you look at the gallons that aren't marked spring water...in small print it'll say "water distilled by reverse osmosis"....or something like that

The Reef has the best prices on test kits.You're going to have to wait on the shrimp though. The fish room wont open for another two weeks. Too bad you live in Manayunk, there isnt much around there as far as fish stores, good ones anyway.
Oh, and no new customers allowed in the Reefs fishroom until all of us old customers get our picks first.

See I don't think I want to go all the way out there if there are no fishies to look at!!! What is that place by the airport?? I might hit that up.
And what is this about no newbies? no fair!!!

The place down by the airport is East Coast Aquatics. They have a somewhat decent selectionbut their prices are high.
Well I guess a newbie can go to the Reef, but only when escorted by a regular. :hilarious

If anyone is interested, the Reef is putting water in their tanks. It wont be long now. Lets have a party.

Whoo hoo! Water!

Adair, if the prices on this site for Salifert Alkalinity is decent and their shrimp are good too, I got all of my peppermint shrimp from saltwaterfish.com about a year ago. I think you need a minimum order of $79 to get free shipping or something like that, if you need more loot to get to that amount I can order some stuff too probably and we can place a group order and I can bring it over to your place when it gets here or you guys can come pick it up, whatever works for you. No one else around here has affordable dry goods.

Speaking of order...I need some suggestions!
I want to get a group of peppermint shrimps for sure and looking at what the SWF has available what else should I get?
In my tank right now all I have are:
4 blue legged hermits
9 turbos
a bunch of frags (thanks to bonebrake)
mushrooms
green and purple ricordea
zoos
colt
xenia
green stars
Remember I am living fish free for 6 weeks, so no fishies!
