ST/ fishy
IMO all the posts here have been excellent. No flames.
I dont think for one moment that J&L has been harmed by these postings.
I think they learned from them though.
Hopefully others have as well.

Ordering a bunch of cheap powder blues, dumping them cheap on a bunch of unsuspecting newbies in not what we reefers expect from J&L
IMO- a comment like that is harmful!

S/T fishy
Its the old BB typed comment.
How about We reefers have a high opinion of J&L. We would not expect them to buy powder blue tangs on the cheap, and dump them on unsuspecting reefers.

I know what your saying naesco :wink: , I just think that sometimes these post can damage a store's reputation even if they don't read that strong. It's the implacations or expectations that sometimes do more harm.

cheers, Rich :D

Right S/T fishy
The moral for all LFS and online stores is don't put yourself in a position to do anything that gives you anything :D but positive comments from all of the members of this and other boards.

Naesco, when are you going to share some pics of your tanks...? You sound like you must have wonderful tang tanks and I am sure everyone would be very interested in seeing them and the conditions you try to emulate for them.

Emily, I am surprised by what you say was said, dissapointed more than that. I think I know who would say that.... and he probably got reamed for saying it if his brother overheard him.... If he didn't I will speak to Eric tomorrow and let him know that when stupid stuff like that is said, it hurts their reputation when experienced folks overhear it. It isn't a perfect store by any means.... The lady who now runs it does so as a business, not as a service, the manager is more service oriented but stupid stuff still happens.

I will add my 2 cents here. The online store we have like Salwater connection and J&L are the 2 best store I know

Yes there maybe some place for improve and I agree one should not sell powder blue in special but you should never forget that those two store are IMO the best of the best and we should very happy to have them

IMO notting could compare to those store for service,quality and the price. fish coral,and dry good from J&L and SWC are 1/2 and sometime 1/3 the price of wath I can find here and in beter shape so yes there a place for improve but people should not forget they already do a realy great job :mrgreen:

agreed. i haven't purchased livestock yet, but for dry goods, my dealings with J&L and SWC have been very smooth and satisfactory. along with aquarium illusions in edmonton, i plan to make them my chief sources for livestock. at least they're not like some other shops we know, that sell aptasia for $30 a pop. :rolleyes:

Seriak 03-28-2003 05:31 PM

$30.00 a pop for aiptasia. I'm rich!
