    I don't know what you guys are talking about...:confused::confused: That is a GREAT deal for a 24 karat powerhead! I wonder if they are relatives of the 19,000 dollar tank guy :laughing0

    Jans is a joke, and all the others are not considered Local for me. Personally, I think we need Gills Rock N Reef back.

    I am not saying Jan's is perfect, and Pet Station is a whole lot closer to you than Sac or SLC.

    There are times we need something right away and just can't wait to order online.

    I really liked Matt and Tammy also, but in this biz climate I would not hold my breath on them being able to come back.

    Keep your eyes open, Ron from Scheel's would like to do some retail

    I hear ya, its just the LFS scene has always been frustrating to me.......now dont get me wrong, the people at ofishal were nice guys (and a gal) but my first experiences there kept me from going back. Thats why I have extra powerheads, extra medications, extra heaters, and even an extra tank ...............I pretty much have another system, just not running, in case of emergencies.......just so that I have no reliance on our LFSs. It would be really cool to see something at scheels though!
