Talking big als will match pricing

Not true. Big als will match pricing just print out the product from the net and bring it in. They will charge you equivelant shipping if the product is under $200. I bought a super skimmer and a coralife PC from Big als and had them match both prices from JL.

p.s I do support JLaquatics though. My live rock from them should be here tomorrow.

Why not check with one of our board sponsers like Ocean Aquatics or IPZ? They may be able to help you out and you would be supporting those that support us!

Thanks for all the suggestions. I did check out the OA site, but they don't have these particular products listed. Took me a while to find the IPZ site, and their price for the aqualight pro is a lot higher too. Guess I could ask and see if they'll deal...

Steve,

Call Wendall at OA and ask him for what you want. He'll probably be able to get it for you. Ask for matching prices with J&L and he'll probably do that too. Their website isn't fully up to date.

I actually just ordered a whack of VHO tubes for my 67g from AI. They almost matched J&L's prices, and I didn't have to pay shipping, so I think total cost will be very close to J&L.

Yeah...here is somebody that really gets it. Ocean Aquatics has always been good to me. They even kicked in a gift certificate for our last Frag Meet in Calgary. They have earned my business. I agree with Ruth, I always support those that support us first.

Wendell is a very good guy to deal with. You can contact him at:

http://www.oceanaquatics.com/

OA is also one of the first stores to step up & offer to help solve the "bad Kent salt" situation.

I just ordered a 36" Aqualight Pro from Wendell. He matched JL's pricing and shipping.

I ordered a few other dry goods that aren't listed on his website and he is able to get those as well. I'm new at this whole salt water aquarium thing but Ocean Aquatics has my business for years to come.
