The owner of that store posts on RC, btw. Maybe he'll stop in here - I may get my next big tank from him if the price is right. ;)

I talked to him the other day, he seems like he is willing to go the extra mile to make things happen. He was willing to meet me at his store so I could pick something up. Definitely worth consideration when he gets open. Maybe Nick could work on him having a special day for members to go to and get an additional discount. He did say that we would be getting a %10 discount when we show our card.

Will he give 10% on tanks? Specifically 240g Tenecor drilled with 2 - 1 1/2" bulkheads in overflows.

Hello ALL:

My name is Bill Nagy and I am the owner of THE SALTWATER REEF in Orlando. As has been stated, my store will be opening Aug. 30th ( all my tanks won't be filled with livestock - but over time my store will be the best stocked store in Orlando). I am trying to get the word out about my store - so hopefully you can help! I have talked to John and emailed Nick. This is my first retail store and I want, and expect, it to be a success - with good prices, quality supplies and a great location.

As you can see from my website ( sorry Navymedic - if you don't like it - since I did it myself!) I am the Tenecor dealer for all of central Florida along with my internet business. I look forward to selling you a Tenecor (Mr. Neutron - let's talk) - the best acrylic aquarium on the market.

I look forward to meeting all of you at my store after Aug 30th.

Bill,
As the former owner of a retail pet establishment, welcome to the business. All I can say is better you than me. ;)

I won't be getting the tank for another 3-5 months so there is no rush. You are local so that is a big plus. I'll probably also need a stand for it, if I don't find anyone to help me build one...

Mike
