[Apon]

Hello , Yes finally we are almost ready. We have been working from about 3am to 8pm everyday for the past month. Today we passed the last of all the city inspections, so we will open this friday. ( March 2nd ) . The new store hours will be Monday - Friday 10-8. Sat & Sun 10-7. There are many many things that are not completed in the store, but we must open! It will take us a few more months to complete all of the displays etc.....

We will be receiving a couple SPS shipments and Indo / Bali coral shipments in before we open, as well as some fish. Our new location is 6920 Amador Plaza Rd. Dublin Ca. 94568. Located next to PetSmart in the Target, ToysR'Us, Home EXPO center. off of Dublin Blvd. It is only 9 miles from the old location, and it is much much nicer!

Thanks for spreading the word for us., Ken

The frog fish was smaller than a quarter....has Norm written all over it. The coral bins were nice an long about 20 ft easy and they have 3 of them!

We stopped by, and the store is definitely huge. Lots of parking so no hunting around for parking. The holding tanks look great, and will look better with time.

Norm, that frogfish is screaming your name under water.

Nice froggie. I do have a small red angler like that one, but.... how much was it?

 

[Apon]

no price listed - the fish were not for sale, they are waiting for the systems to stablize first.

 

[Natterjak]

Fish are for sale again, but I was there tonight and didn't see any of the froggies.

 

[bareefers]

did you see any sunburst/fathead anthias there natterjak?

Oh well. He does get some nice ones periodically. I've seen cantaloupe sized A. commerson(giant) frogfishes at the old AC.

I saw that one too, but he was dead. :s

 

[Natterjak]

There were a couple huge anthias there yesterday, but I'm not sure which kind they were. I can swing by again today and try to find out.

 

[bareefers]

thanks, looking for a few sunburst, i think they are seasonal too, saw alot last summer, but heard they are normally around in the spring?..

 

[Raddogz]

Let me know if you find some. I am looking for some as well.
