That Fish Place Day Trip

[BowieReefer84]

So I just got home from my first trip to that fish place in Lancaster. It was amazing. The first store I have ever been to that had every single item in the tanks labeled with prices. The coral selection was good, but not amazing as the fish selection. They had every single fish I could imagine ever seeing. Leopard wrasses, puffers, tangs, I can't even expain it. Sea slugs, box fish, EVERYTHING! And the tanks had zero algae (must be a huge UV somewhere in there). They also have a display tank in the front that must be 2,000 gallons (didn't ask). Had acro's encrusting on the back glass. They also had a LED lit tank with the MP series powerheads (photo below). The torch coral was wazing like crazy and the shimmer effect was unreal. This was the first LED lit tank I have seen and I am sold. They had acro frags that seemed to be doing well in the tank. I am in Towson for the weekend so I made it there in an hour and ten minutes. Also, they stock any tank you could ever want with a great selection of quality stands. They had some 300 gallon deep dimension tanks.... Definately worth the trip. I managed to make it out with a powerhead and some snails. I went more to see what's there then to buy stuff.

Yep, that place is awesome. I go there a couple times a year. Stock up on salt, frozen food, and anything else I need. I've gotten 4 buckets of oceanic salt there for $99 more than one time as one example.

We like to go to their annual sale - usually salt is buy 3 get 1 free. I love making a stop there whenever I'm coming back from visiting family, even if it is an additional 45mins to an hour out of the way.

 

Watch for their sale - usually around April. The discounts are pretty good during this time, especially if you have things other than fish. I always stock up on my reptile uvb bulbs during this time..

I've been there a few times while visiting facilities up in Valley Forge (I make it a point to bring myself home by that route). The place is HUGE. That's for sure.

Their midweek madness coupon is around just about every month that they aren't doing some other huge sale. Just get on their mailing list and you'll get a copy each month. Been thinking of driving up during the week sometime soon and using the coupon on a Vortech MP40.
