Today i went to my LFS and asked if they could help me set up some sort of SPS package and he said as much as he would like to he cant, then he let me in on this little secret
he said " i really don't wanna do this, but there's this store not a lot of people know about in this industrial park that has no signs, and is hard to find that is an ALL coral store with 2 humongous look down tanks and several tanks along the wall with very nice SPS which they actually specialize there called "A Reef Creation" and its only 15 minutes away :) :)
i never even heard of this place but im going tomorrow and i bet its going to be a euphoric experience
its really cool my LFS actually told me about another one, theyre very competitive around here

Sweet!
i discovered anawesome hidden LFS near my house last year... unfortunately they closed about a week later...
Sweet, looks very similar to the selection at my LFS. Looks like they have some nice high end frags.. Assorted ORA frags @ $40ea seems like a good price. I see that ATL Pink polyp cap (http://areefcreation.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=15_17&products_id=42) that I can't give enough away seems to go for $50 for a 1" frag. 1/2" Sunset Monti is $60.. I gave Scootrnerd at least a 1" frag. Jealous yet? LOL.
Maybe we can setup a trade for some Bill's collectables for some SPS frags. ;) Not a lot of Bill's stuff in my neck of the woods.
It does look like a nice place. Congrats on the find -- I hope it's as good in person as it appears on the web.

that is awesome!
small business owners love to help eachother out a lot. there is no point in competing with other small businesses with certain products or product lines. this person gave you great and honest advice and the next time you need something i am sure that you will go directly to this store again, and even pay a few bucks extra for the help, support, and quality products they offer that you can get cheaper at the chain store....@ the coral place make sure to tell the owner the high praises other stores have given their shop...he will love that he got the recommendation and will be urged to recommend your LFS in return.

the only thing easier to come by in buffalo is drugs(sad right).. you want bills stuff? i can get like 4 boxes of it one day.. just last night at the bar i work at they were giving away bills shirts.
Want a TO in the BLO shirt? foam hands, posters, beer holders.. anything you want man let me know man id gladly send a box of it up there with like 50 bucks to get at some of your frags!
LOL.. NO TO stuff! I hate that guy! I was joking the whole off season that the Bill's would grab Michael Vick to take the limelight away from TO. But shirts, posters, hats, cups, things like that will just standard Bill's logos are things I look for.

hahaha alright no T.O stuff, ill start making a collection for you ( I really am going to do this now). once i feel there is sufficient stuff ill definitely ship it your way.. hopefully medium sized everything will suffice.
i wouldve loved to have the puppy killer.then we coulda had the Micheal Vick show, which would be incredible
