We got in 4 boxes of fish today and two boxes of SPS corals. The livestock list has been updated and there are lots of pretty cool fish on it. The Anthias have to be seen to be beleived the Sunrise Dottyback and the Orchre Dottyback are amazng and there are others. We have a few Scarlet Legged Reef Hermits left and I will try to get more.
As the post topic suggests the first bit of news is there will no longer be weekly updates … well ok, so there have been no weekly updates for a quite a few weeks. We are going to do monthlies instead and I will make other posts as time allows.
Many of you likely know I`ve been looking at camera`s because I`ve been asking many of you what you owned and how you liked it. What I wanted was something that could do photos for QuinteReef as well as cats for WildExspressions Bengals. Well I finally decided on a Canon DSLR.
New Customers
- Had a fellow make the drive from Ottawa last week. While we have a bunch of customers from Napanee, a number from Kingston and even a couple from the Seeleys Bay/Gananoque area, Ottawa is a first for us. That is definitely the farthest anyone has driven with no other reason then to come to the store. He bought a brand new $1200+ stand and canopy for $500 and a bunch of other ends and odds and basically left with his truck filled lol. We are picking up new customers every week and we are very grateful for the business.
Harry was a sort of store mascot and while he certainly is not the longest bristle worm we have had, he was the coolest.
Harry lived under a Green Open Brain for many months and I was fine with that. One day for no apparent reason he moved and shortly there after I got nailed by him. I spent 15 or 20 minutes with tweezers plucking a few hundred of Harry's hairs out of my fingers and thumb. It caused me no real discomfort but it was still irritating if you know what I mean. A second close call a week later made me decided Harry needed to go…. I miss him.
I am completely frazzled but in good way. What a crazy week we just had.
First things first. Those that you that are waiting on email replies from me…what can I say. I am running 2 companies and in the process of launching a 3rd so I'm working 16 hour days 7 days a week and for two of those companies I am the entire staff. I'm doing the best I can.
We have been selling Red Leg and Blue Leg Hermits at 10 for $10 and I plan on attempting to keep that as a regular price. I only have one supplier that can get them to me at cheap enough price to pull that off but so far so good. I am bring them in 500 at a time and this week alone I went though 300+ crabs.
