There will be a awakening of LFS owners when they stop getting the volume of business and a few people subtly drop hints to them of the kinds of dollars that are going to MO because they refuse to service their clients/potential clients ( eg. VHO 36" actinic locally = $49.99 ... J&L = $32.99 and piggybacked on a free shipping order from Mike ) ... either they carry the product and then hold you over a barrel to buy it or they dont even try to get what the local market is looking for ... gone are the days when you HAD to buy locally ... the hobbyist is more educated ( minus the Nemo rage ) and wont take lightly bad advice / poor holding conditions / and a general lack of concern for being a professional store with strong ethics and animal husbandry skills < step off soap box >

Sure would be nice to have at least one store here that took this hobby seriously AND treated their clients honestly/fairly
