there are several other pet stores around here that I would buy from before I bought from jack's.
House of tropicals doesn't know how to take care of their fish, either. They are CLUELESS. They sell this "live rock" that's in this huge vat, 6.99/ lb by the way, and it has absolutely NO life on it whatsoever. Then, if you look in the back right corner of the store, they have their "coraline rock" which is like 11 or 12 dollars a pound. IT's just regular live rock, it has coraline algae on it. (and not much, at that). Their fish are way overpriced, and always in poor condition. Anyways, the only other stores that I know of in cincinnati are Just About Fish in montgomery (very nice store but a bit overpriced), Monfort Aquarium and Pets, Wet Pets, (The guy at Wet Pets is an A$$h0le but they always have a good selection of fishies.), and Aquatics and Exotics. (cincyreefer and I work at the same store)
the only reason I say don't buy saltwater fish from jack's is because, first of all, I used to work there, and every fish that I have ever bought from them hasn't faired so well. It has always ended up getting sick and half of them have died. (and no, it wasn't my water conditions.) I don't know how much money I have put into buying medication for my sick Jack's fish. They also put lots of copper in their "fish" side of the marine section, so don't ever get any of their water in your tank. I made that mistake once, and it killed my anemone and snails.
And lastly, I just have a hate for jack's simply because I know how they treat their animals. During the whole time that I worked there, there were maybe 2 people that REALLY cared about what happened to the fish and to the animals there. It's a corrupt little corporation.
