I assume by your post that they are actually open. What are their hours?

I was at Riverfront a couple of weeks ago just to check out the new salt area. They had some cool fish alright, but most of them, like 85% had ick. I also found their prices to be a bit high.

the thing with riverfronts prices is they have a yearly club for 20$ AND IT GETS YOU 20% of all live and 10% off dry goods. little known fact that helps bring prices back to competitive. i was there yesterday getting rubble and they had some pretty cool triggers. not sure what kind(s).

Why pay to get high prices for sick fish discounted? Get them from some place where they don't have ick.
