    We have had an interesting couple of weeks!

    Sales are pretty good. Its amazing how unpredictable it is. One moment the store is empty and the next its packed (Literally!).

    We have only had 2 days when the sales were terrible. Other then that its been good. We also had a local car dealership (The Corvette specialists!) call and make an appointment for a full install and service of a 400G reef!

    We have sold several nano's and currently having a custom stand and canopy made for a customer that is going to do a full reef setup.

    Took in a couple of RTBA today and some rocks covered in mushrooms from a couple of regular customers.
    Things are going good!

    Made it to the store today. Talked to coloradoreef's better half. I must say it is a very nice store. Everything is clearly marked, I never had a question as to what any of the livestock cost. Everything looked healthy to me. The way they keep the anemones is VERY smart! And the labeling system of reef safe, not reef safe, well that's just genius and going the extra mile for your customers. All in all, a top notch store! And the hours? Until 9pm? That's amazing. All the other stores close at 6 during the week. Which makes it very inconvenient when you need something during the week. The rest of the stores around here could really take a page from you guys! Keep it up!!!

    Thanks Brandon, we are trying to make it customer friendly.
    Thanks for buying the pump and additive.

    BTW: I hope the other stores don't take anything from us! :)

    Not yet.....Cant find the time to make it happen.

    We are working on 2 custom install and maintenance accounts.
    This is proving to be a lot of work. Someday we will have it all figured out.
