I've been using Pet Plus. They've got some pretty good stuff in there Lawrenceville and Langhorne stores, but the nicest stuff I've seen is in there Philly store.
I've been to the Hidden Reef twice. The first time I liked what I saw, so I bought an Elegance Coral. I had it for about a week when it stopped opening up and subsequently (slowly but surely) died. I went back there a second time and all of the corals were bleaching and dead. Will never go back there again.

Jim,
I know that the elegence coral is one of the hardest of the LPS's to raise in captivity. It is right up there with some of the flower pot corals only more exspensive. But I know how frustrating it is to buy something only for it to die within a week. Tracey |

It's on the Brunswick Circle right off of Business Route 1. Their address is 111 Lawrenceville Rd, Lawrenceville NJ 08648, phone 609-278-0888.
It's the best LFS I've found in Mercer County so far, but their prices are just about the same as most other pet stores (yuck), although some of their sales are pretty good. The people at Precious Pets (in Trenton) are nice, too, and they sell a different variety of stuff than Pets Plus, I tend to like the livestock better at Pets Plus. I've also tried Marty's Tropical Fish in, uh...I guess it's still considered Hamilton. It's at the, uh, 206 circle? Right near an all you can eat chinese food place. Didn't really like their livestock at all. I stopped by Dom's Pet Store (whatever it's called) in Mercerville since it's new and they advertised a 55 gallon tank with hood for $99, but they have zippo for saltwater livestock and only a minimal amount of saltwater supplies. That's about it, Pet's Plus and Precious Pets are the two that I go to. |

I usually frequent Aquarium Discount and Aquarium Authority... they aren't the biggest fish stores but they're also one block from each other so you can shop around.
I really like the livestock presentation at AA, nice clean tanks with healthy looking fish (no floaters either). AD has great hardware prices with a massive selection but is a bit of a sty. There are a couple of larger ones but those two being so close to each other I consider it one store (that and they're both about five miles from my house). EDIT: These are both in Medford at the 70/73 circle. |

Guys the reason I am asking this is I would like to have small banners made up and placed in select LFS's throughout the state of NJ. Of course sponsering stores are already on the list to be given one. Now I will rephrase the question.
What store in your area would you give a banner to? I already took one to AF.... I figured with Reefer Madness coming up and the place will be packed again, This is a great place to get our name out there.  Now here is what has been stated so far, Do you think that they would be willing to put a banner up for us?

Tracy, How big of a banner are we talking about. Our store Pets Plus has a bunch of stuff hanging around already. Plus our walls have murels all over them. If you let me know the size i will see if there is any place to hang it.

I don't know if Precious Pets would be willing, but I can find out. I'll leave Pet's Plus to Gin
I don't know Marty's or Dom's well enough at all, and as I said Dom's really doesn't seem to be Saltwater oriented at all. I've only been to Marty's once just to see what was there
