They bring no corals in at all. Most of the corals in the store come from whatcaneyedo. They are way over priced so they sit and die. He also supplied them with the caluepra that they sell for I think $20 a bag. I notice he is not speaking up about this as they do take his frags and put up his posters. So smart on his part, I guess. What really bothers me is that the salt they have now has been there for months so why not put up the price after this batch is gone. But there is a bucket of Seachem salt on sale for $79
Either way they have lost a customer.

I cant wait for Brightwells new Kalibrate to hit the market.

Just mix with Sodium Chloride - 1 x 5 Gallon bucket does 450 gallons of saltwater..........

Considering how little I spend in the store relative to what I spend elsewhere their service towards me has been very good. So like you figured, I really have no grounds for complaint.

Salt prices NEED to stay low, it's the staple of this hobby. A person can choose not to dose Zeo, they can opt for cheaper lights, they cannot do without salt. If everyone sold salt at exorbitant prices, the hobby would slowly die. If no one could afford gasoline, no one would buy cars, pretty simple concept. It's like Ken @ BWA said, you have to use things like salt to keep people coming in the door. If you do that you can make the margins elsewhere.
