What would everyone like to see in a new store. I'm still in the building stage so any suggestions are welcome. Ill be expanding into the warehouse shortly to make room for more fish and coral tanks, as well as an empty tank and stand showroom. Frozen food requests are also welcome.

I think it would be cool to see fish that aren't the typical every day fish that you see at every Petco. I love nudibranches, different kinds of shrimp, seahorses, I would love love love to find a blue ring angel, but just things that aren't seen every day. Yellow Tang, prime example LOL, beautiful but very common.

Some aquacultured fish that aren't all deformed like the onyx perculas I keep seeing at all the Petco's. Some rare anemone's like different color morphs of heteractis malu, crispa, magnificent, and even different color morphs of bubble tips. It's be real neat to sea some different species of cleaner shrimp like pendersons cleaner shrimp. Different types of chromis, cardinals and anthias compared to whats already locally offered. All just Ideas though.

To be honest i like going into a store and knowing they will have what i want in stock... I guess thats why i really enjoy going to aqua corals... I can guarantee they will have what i need is in stock... Because she always keeps up on her ordering... Other than that, it is also nice to go into a store where it just isnt a bunch of clownfish. Hence why i like going to Jays! They have so many different things! Its awesome because you never know what you are going to find! They have so much variety! It really is nice! I notice a lot of the stores around here, you go in and it is mostly all clownfish! Its nice to go somewhere and have choices!

Definitely a constant and always different variety of fish, inverts and corals is nice. I like walking into a store where the tanks are spotless, the livestock is healthy or at least separated and marked if not, owners and staff being open minded to changes and different opinions of the hobby and willing to take the time with customers. Its also nice seeing a mix of reef safe and non reef safe fish and inverts along with a wide range of dried goods to fit everyone's needs. Not every one uses the same product so variety is key to bringing in the sales. Hopefully I'll get to check it out soon.

I never saw anything at atlantis except 1/2 dead leathers, every once in a wile there would be a nice lps but it usually went in the show tank now I have to drive to jays in nh to get anything big enough to not look like a speck in the tank and his prices have trippled in the past couple years if there were a store around here that ordered direct the could make serious $$$$$$$$
