I always wanted a frogfish!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well after seeing jeni's . I have been thinking of setting up a tank for one. So they have a larger fish selection now?

Yeah, they have some sweet stuff right now. You should go check out that frog fish.. its about 3 or 4" across. Greenish-grey. They have some really nice wrasses... including one that has these AMAZING green and pink patterns, if my tank was bigger I would get it.

Hey, when I go there, I never see you... I swear you work there!!

MrMexReefer · #7 04/12/2007, 10:56 PM

hahaha i wish i did MikeD, I would save some money! haha I work 2 blocks away from the place... its dangerous. After a long day at work, I stop by DLC and spend $20 to make me feel better... haahaha. Wait.. were you the guy in the Rod's Food shirt???

MikeD · #8 04/13/2007, 03:07 AM

That was me!

And it was a Rod's REEF T-shirt. All I can say is WOW what a great place! Their micro's are amazing and confirmed that I want to go w/ T-5's on one of my tanks. I picked up a Chip's acro and a Sweet ORA clam. They even hooked me up w/ a cooler and a heat pack. The best yet was their music seletion, I didn't hear one song I didn't like. I'm definitely going back there, even if it's 2hr drive from Rockford.

Hahahaha Cool, well, nice to sorta meet ya Benjie. I agree with the T5's... I will be ordering a fixture from them pretty soon... the corals just look 100 times better under those Tek fixtures.

Is DLC- online only? or are their business hours an open store?

Steverino · #12 04/13/2007, 03:54 PM
