    All the items you see, are over 75.00 each ... I need to plan a drive and find a store that can actually sell me something in my price range...

    Frogspawn for $75. He won't stay in business long with prices like that. No way I would pay that.

    75 for that small frogspawn? If he wants to charge that it better be huge!

    I quit buying water from him a few weeks ago, after I noticed he was taking it out of his display circulation setup.... i dunno, his prices are actually cheaper than the other place here locally ... after that, I gotta drive 80+ miles to find another ...

    ugg...

    Time for you to do the on-line thang it seems. Yeah....I bought a small one head FS for 4$30 at on of my more expensive LFS around here. For $75 I could drive an hour and get something the size of my hand.

    Not sure whether or not it's your camera or not, but those corals don't seem to look particularly healthy either. The guy sounds like a crook.

    That coral looks pretty unhealthy.
    Is there any good places for coral and fish online?

    Always been scared to have that sort of thing shipped.
