    Petco or PetSmart

    I would say the PetCo in cherry hill has been terrible each and every time I have gone there...so I would avoid. Petsmart...do they actually carry saltwater fish? Havent seen that in my life.

    starting a reef club

    I can see why no one wants to set one up. Thankless job with a bunch of effort. Risk, effort and cost without and real benefit to those who take time out of their schedule.

    Hidden Reef

    I didnt even ask. They definitely were short handed. But given what I saw in the tanks...it honestly looks like they have given up. Granted, I have seen this from them before just for them to get their act together..but this was really a rough trip. Actually feel bad for the sickly looking...

    Hidden Reef

    I went to the hidden reef over the weekend. Was such a sad and disappointing experience. Looks like they had an almost storewide system crash. 80% of the tanks were literally empty. the other 20% was cloudy with algea blooms with minimal sickly looking fish. Dinos, cyano and algea abound...

    Asterina Stars

    Anyone in the Medford / Cherry hill area willing to scrape off a few (more if you got them) Asterina stars? I am all but completely out for my Harlequin Shrimp. This little gut clean out my tank pox in a matter of 4 months and either I rehome him, feed him or watch him die.

    Harlequin Shrimp

    couple months back, I got a harlequin shrimp to deal with my explosion of asterinas (or what ever people call them). My tank is officially cleared of the starPox. Might have to rehome him less he starve. Would consider BTAs, flame angel, shrimp goby, fire shrimp. Medford Lakes area.
