Tidal Wave Aquariums
I just checked out a "new" (new to me) aquarium shop.... I found it through a referral & however small, the selection was pretty good. My wife & I ended up picking up 2 Blue Hippo Tangs, a Coral Beauty & 2 Lettuce Slugs.
I'll take some pictures of the Hippos sometime this weekend. They have already made themselves at home in my 75.
They have fresh & saltwater, although I only care about the salt water stuff.
I have to admitt that from Mandarin...the journey was a hike! For what I picked up I would say the trip was worth the time. The owner seemed interested in special orders for specific items & he mentioned that he hand picks his corals.
Did I mention that the coral tank looked pretty good...it was about the size of a 75....not huge, but had plenty in it. Of special note was a very nice red tube worm. It also had "normal stuff" like goniopora, zoas, brain, ricordea, mushrooms, sun polyps, sponge, clams, plate corals, etc.
The owner seemed like a nice guy & I hope he does well.
