| that's true, when i first went there i was pretty impressed with the selection and pieces they had, but after going back a few times I realized that most of the tanks are for fragging and not for sale, kinda of bummer

| I'm from berks county (real close to that fish place <45 minutes) I have often gone by the fishman in DE. It has been always late at night. I was wondering if their selection and prices are worth a daytime trip down. their web site is pretty sparse. |

Been there once or twice when I'm through DE. Its has or had a good bit of stuff when I was there. It was nice to get some live rock from them without the tax on it. |

| The selection and price of Fishman's is not worth the trip, I think at any time. I go there if need something small or for convenience, it's closer than East Coast and That Fish Place. For coral, it is hit or miss, sometimes that have a decent selcetion, but often they have next to nothing, literally. They don't carry any frags or small pieces, I was in today and they had some stuff, soft corals, toadstool, finger leather were going for $99, they were nice sized pieces, but still. The hard corals are about the same if not a little more. Their dry goods are also a little more expensive than other places. I am heading to That fish place this weekend to pick some more of a clean up crew |

| If you're looking @ Delaware, try Delaware's Premium Aquatics or William's Greenbank Aquarium. DPA has a good staff and I've heard William's is stocking more SW fish and corals recently, although I haven't been there for a while.
As for reef clubs, there are the ones mentioned previously as well as Delaware Valley Reef Club. |
