    Hey guys I'm in south Cali right now and was thinking about stopping at the LFS in sac and was wondering if anyone can recommend a store. I know there was a list of them on the forums some where but I'm doing this all on my phone and could not find the thread... Plus it take awhile to go through forums on the phone. Also is there a certain way I should bring them back if I do get something? Will the attitude change affect them or well the water in the bag get to cold? I leave tomorrow for sac in LA right now I'll check back on the forums later. Thanks.

    there is a store in fountan vallev tongs tropical fish, nice store the best way is to put them in the bag tell them you are going long distance and they may even give you a box to keep the cool for the drive through the valley its just off the 405

    exotic has a ton of frags. probably 5 different frag tanks all 5X the size of mine ;) just be careful, they either have great deals or are overpriced depending on coral. Your Reef has great prices and customer service but is on the smaller side. Transport wise you should be fine, but either should be able to give you a styrofoam box to be on the safe side.
