Exclamation Aquatech is no longer Aquatech

I stopped by Aquatech and got a big suprise. The store is under new ownership...

Randy is now the owner of the store, and hes going to make some big changes in the next few months.

I have no idea what he has in store for us, but it's Randy, so its gotta be good!


He had been dreaming of a store to call his own for many years, and now his dream has come true.

I'm already positive that it'll do great, but lets make sure of it,

Go check out the former Aquatech people,

There'll be great things coming!

Steve

Re: Aquatech is no longer Aquatech

good luck, Randy.
If there's going to be a new name for the store let us know ASAP.

If I'm not mistaken, Randy will be naming the store after his maintanance business, Reef Creations, or possibly A Reef Creation. Randy, will you clear this up for everyone?

Also, I believe the store hours will remain the same for now, that is until fall comes around. Again, of course its Randy's call here so let us know if I'm right. Current hours are:

Mon Closed
Tues Closed
Weds 5-9
Thurs 5-9
Fri 5-9
Sat 11-6
Sun 12-5

I'll keep my posting about this subject to a minimum as to keep it from being commercial.
acdraindrps is correct with the names and hours. No new location.

Here is what Jason sent to the Aquatech e-mail club

"Hope you are having a great summer. Hope your tanks are doing great. I just want to thank you for all your business and help to make aqua tech great. I have met a lot of great people and made some good friendships. At this time aqua tech has been bought out. Randy is now opened his own store called reef creation. It is in the same place just a different name. You are wondering why. It is simply that life is to short and I was spending way to much time at the store and not enough with my family. I was working 60 to 70 hours. Aqua tech is still there. Randy just has the store. I am still building tanks and doing maintenance on fish tanks. I am just working monday to friday 5-9. If you ever have any problems still feel free to call me at 348-2306. Randys numbers are shop 565-0700 cell 207-0087. good bye and good luck with your tanks."
