Default Where are the good fish stores?

I haven't mentioned my setup yet because I didn't want to get any more lashes. [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] But here goes. 38 gallons, 2 power compacts lights, 1 regular NO light (all lights left on from 9am-12am 15 hours), 2 powerheads with carbon cartridge, AquaC Remora skimmer, 50 lbs of live rock, RO water.

Troy, sorry to hear the bad experiences there and thanks for sharing that. I don't have any other experiences at King Eds but my first impression was positive. Point taken about going to more knowledgable places when needing to find information. I did find that King Ed's prices for fish and dry goods were much cheaper than other places and slightly more than J&L. I try to always shop at J&L first and if they don't carry a certain item or don't have stock, I think King Ed is going to be my second stop simply for the prices and reasonable livestock selection. I'll do more research next time. [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Gave my 3 anemones their first prawn dinner tonight. They gobbled them up in a hurry. Thank goodness, as there was an audience with high expectations watching. In addition to prawn and shrimp, I'll be feeding them a varied diet including scallop and Hikari multi-vitamin fortified Mysis shrimp.

In terms of fish, now that Maroons are out of the picture , I'll probably get 2 False and 2 True Perculas (I'm still surprised to hear that Maroons are agressive. I don't doubt it but I did have great luck with mine in the past).
