petmart

I was in petmart in Batavia and I was talking to Kenny.He was telling me he is going to have a huge sale on everything in the scratch and dent room.He was saying even though the prices are low when he marks everything down the prices are going to be sick. I guess what I am saying is if you are thinking of getting a new tank this might be the time to do it. I know it will not be marked down this weekend but if you happen to catch him in there he willprobaly cut you a great deal.If I was not supposed to post this I am sorry I do not work there or anything just wanted to help everyone save som loot....Scott

I wonder how much a 3 or 4 inch cooling fan would cost?

and you just gotta go up to kenny, say hi and all, and wait till he's free a moment. its definatly worth waiting. if you dont, you will be losing lots of $$$$

Caught him this am. WOW, he's wheeling and dealing out there. If I could have I'da picked up this AMAZING RR58gal Starfire Oceanic. The price was rediculous! and he most assuredly would have haggled on the price. Lots of other good stuff and TONS in the back, back room, with more on the way!

I'm NOT going back!!!!

Oh man, that thing was SWEET! I fell in love with that ash-wood oceanic RR120 around the corner from it. My buddy that picked up the 180 was reeeeeally eyeballing that 7foot 265. I told him if he bought that, that we'd no longer be friends cause it's gotta weigh a TON!!!!

i picked up a Oceanic 75G RR and a stand today. great price...

Going to be quite the upgrade from my 45g non-RR tank!!!

not sure what I will do w/ the extra 1 foot of length and 18" of width to aquascape vs. the 12" I've been dealing with!

I'm going to be setting it up and moving everyone tomorrow to the new tank. I'll take some pictures of the transition and post them.

The new tank looks SOOOO big next to the 45g! Hah!

YOU SAID IT.. Its nice to throw lfs a bone once in a while.Kind of annoys me to hear what great deals everyone gets on internet buys to save a couple of dollars Shouldnt always be price first no matter your budget.seems alot of non supporters.just the gravy stuff.maybe its alright if we pay a little more for salt locally and rake up the bonus on the corals and our lfs will be there tomorrow.

Hey all,,,I haven't been in here in awhile,,,looks like the buzz is about Petmart in Batavia. I have been in there pretty steady,,usually once a week if not more. Like you guys say it is hard to catch up with Kenny,,but worth it once you do. He is making some major moves in the store from what he says,,he didn't really want to let any cats out of the bag,,but....he wants to move alot of inventory CHEAP to make room for some BIG project going on in the old scratch and dent room,,he has some guy in there moving all kinds of things around. He wouldn't tell me but he said this is a major investment for him fish wise and I am sure it is going to be saltwater because he just did some major renovations on the freshwater section. whatever he does I am sure it will be worth the wait,,,this guy has tanks and tanks and tanks of freshwater livestock. He didn't have much as far as fish in salt,,alot of nice corals though,,thats why I am thinking the salt water renovation. I did take a run up to saltwater paradise and picked up a very nice yellow tang,,those guys are always nice up there. If anyone hears whats going on over Kenny's shout us out a post,,would be nice to know,,Take er easy!!
