MisterTang January 26, 2009 Share January 26, 2009 There's another guy out that way with about 30 tanks in his basement who sells on cl. I wound'nt put anything from his setups in my tank. There have been numerous threads on this character since I've joined. I think everyone in the NoVA area has dealt with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PK3 February 3, 2009 Share February 3, 2009 I've also seen the ads on craigslist. Do you know where in Sterling he is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishyTim February 3, 2009 Author Share February 3, 2009 I went to his townhouse. I want to say its in countryside. He was a real nice guy and everything I got from him was nice. Great prices too!

FishyTim February 12, 2009 Author Share February 12, 2009 I needed to buff up my clean up crew... I bought another package from Jim... For $30 bucks I got... 10 Nassarius Snails 10 Turbos Snails 10 Blue Hermits 1 Peppermint Shrimp This is the second time I have bought stuff from Jim and the livestock has been great. Bottom line is that you cant beat the guys prices. If you are worried about him because he's on craigslist, don't. I also bought a bottle of his copepods/tiger pods. I have seen these bottles in other stores and you can barely see them in the bottle. These things were HUGE and there were tons of them. It was a nice addition to my newly setup fuge! Anyway, just thought I'd share since some were wary. I went to his townhouse. I want to say its in countryside. He was a real nice guy and everything I got from him was nice. Great prices too!
