Some places won't give you future credit, but if you bring in any livestock, you might be able to take something else home at that time. I've returned fish to Aqua hut and Pets Warehouse, and they were both very helpful.

Aqua Hut had given me credit on some show quality fresh water fish but that was years ago. I recently brought a couple of Damsels there but they wouldn't give me any credit for them. I just left the devils there.

By the way, are you currently looking to get rid of something? Usually anybody would rather buy from a local reefer than a LFS anyway. Try posting it in the LIRA forum first.

I am not allowed to post for sale items on this site because I don't have the qualifications needed as of yet.

Still needs to make the 50 post count Same rules for selling apply, it's just not a software restriction like in the selling forums. BTW for a little bit of trivia, it was a former Long Island businessman that habitually rejoined to sell, just as fast as we could ban him, that was the inspiration for that particular rule.

Mutt's and Butts usually does a trade. depending on the quality. The guys who run the fish room are good about it, the managers could be a pain.
