Anything good left?
I'm guessing they haven't been ordering for a few weeks, so the selection must be crappy.

There is quite a good selection still when I was there today. The fish I was wanting now has inch and is in a quarantine tank so go figure. That being said I wish I had a quarantine tank set up because they will take any donation amount for the fish that are being quarantined.

did you notice what they had for inverts? They had Snails, Shrimp, Crabs, Starfish, Urchins, Anenome
Call and ask for Chi he can tell you what specific types they have.

I stopped by after work yesterday, and the selection is getting very slim.
I grabbed 10 - snails and 10 - crabs, which should have come out to $10 after the discount, but she only charged me $1.69.....don't know how she did that but she did.
QT tank is 75% off as a donation, so basically the fish in there are like $8 each. Still a couple of tangs, coral beauty, and another one.
No shrimp left, a few clowns and dottiebacks, definitely slim pickings but there is stuff left.

I just bought $216 worth of frags. Guess what I paid?....wait for it....$23.74. Yes, they discounted my frags $187.45
ORA Strawberry Shortcake Acro $49.99 (I already had one but couldn't beat the price) ORA Plum Crazy Acro $39.99 ORA Green Planet Acro $49.99 - fully encrusted multiple branches ORA Red Spongode $39.99 - huge more of a mini colony than a frag ORA Rose Millipora $39.99 - my favorite score of the night!
None of them are colored up very well but they will be in 2 weeks under my lights. I NEVER go into Petco but was at Dick's and heard about the 50% off. Figured I'd take a look, damn did I get a steal! 75% off plus extra with my Petco card. Not sure how you guys missed these? I guess it's because people are still hesitant to get SPS???

Glad you got the score! Wish I lived closer myself because I'd of probably beat you to it. Lol not many Stick heads in Maine. You, Lance, greg and me that's it for the most part. Although I think there's others that may start getting back into them.

Glad I finally beat you to a deal :-) Lol I think you could probably beat me to most deals down that way. Haven't been back down since I met up with you! I stick to getting my corals shipped mostly. I saw all those ORA plugs in your tank before I saw this and was going to ask you about it, then I saw this thread. Nice to see you back on the forum!

I couldn't help myself, the prices were way too good to pass up. The way they were ringing items in many were free. I just wiped out just about everything they had left. Picked up 20 more frags.
They are selling tanks for donations later tonight.
