Ocean Aquatics - my first impression

[NU-2reef]

Did you say anything to the staff before ranting on a public forum? Maybe they have a valid reason if you cared to ask. I have found OA to be one of the most helpful shops in the area.

What's with all the whiners lately?

That mess you saw was the result of Wendel doing a secret project in the rear half of the store. This area was was previously under used so I am excited as to what he may be cooking up.

I am glad that this owner appears to be upgrading where other stores are closing.

Nothing but good things to say about the store or the people that work there.

IMO, I don't believe he was whining at all. Just giving his impression of the store on the day he visited. I think he did a good job not actually criticizing the store, but recommending possible improvements. And as you all pointed out there was an explanation for the current store disaray.

I agree, OA is one of my favourites. They're my coral shop.

I would have to agree a bit about the hard goods side; it's always been a little lacking. But then again, I never go there for hard goods, so I've never cared.

Too funny.... One rant about a store, many more rants about the initial rant.

Just too funny!!!
