Good LFS's in LongBeach?

Heading up to the aquarium of the pacific later today and I was wondering if there were any GOOD LFS's up there.

Hmm... So I guess I have some isopods in my tank as well. Luckily, they are the slow moving non-biting kind. In one of my nanos, they are all over the glass.

I saw two of them fighting one...

16 ft?
Dang... I don't think I have 16feet worth of wall anywhere in my house. Unless it goes in the hallway. ;)

Question red-slime meds and skimmer... how long?

Yes, but having a skimmer and fuge will counter the low O2 issue.

Some of the tidepools I saw were above the water (ie, no waves crashing into it) and had almost no algae. Fish did fine...
