I couldn't make it. For some reason I thought the BBQ was at 11am or 12pm, not 2pm. I made all my purchases and bought the tanks I wanted by 10:45am, and I just couldn't see myself waiting around 3+ hours. I didn't have your phone number so I couldn't call to see if it would be okay to stop by early, and I didn't want to just show up anyway because that would've been rude LOL.

Oh well...next time I guess! I am heading back over to ThatPetPlace to pick up the second 75g I bought. I could only fit one at a time in the Honda Civic LOL!

Not a big deal really... The drive wasn't as bad as I thought and the store was pretty neat...such a HUGE selection of dry goods...! (the Malawi selection kind of sucked though... LOTS of hybrids... Most notably they had fish labeled as Champsochromis spilorhynchus but were OBVIOUS hybrids with Aristochromis christyi mixed in with them...)

Great deals on dry goods and I had a chat with the Hagen Company representatives about their new canister filter, and I asked them about if they have any idea why some new AquaClear filters are defective out of the box and how I in two cases had to return the filters (a ac70 and a ac110) up to 4 times EACH to get one that worked properly out of the box). The reps weren't aware, apologized for it, and said it must've been a bad batch or something. I told them that I ONLY had those problems with the ac70 and ac110, once with an ac50 but otherwise from ac50 down they work PERFECT out of the box.

Still my favorite power filter brand...

I'm heading up there tomorrow to pickup the second 75g.

I was actually first in line waiting outside the store to get in LOL. After 4 more people lined up 10 minutes later there was over 200 people waiting to go inside LOL.

And what an awesome fish room it has become! Those racks your hubby built are really great looking, and the whole setup was impressive. And I checked out your website, which is mighty swank as well. Congrats on the launch, I hope it is very successful. I know I'll be placing an order soon, those espei rasboras were really nice looking.

Thanks for your hospitality, we were sorry we couldn't come earlier in the day.

Hey Rach,

Sounds like everyone had an awesome time. I was and still am, bummed I couldn't make it. The pig looked awesome. :)

I've still never been to That Fish Place.... I figure I'll give them a chance to restock a bit and hit them up in the next couple of months. If you're around, I'll be sure to drop by. I'll bring Yuengling. :)

thanks! It was nice to meet your kids :) The website still needs alot of work but its getting there. Somehow i just haven't had the time with all the party prep, lol. My husband did an AMAZING job! We raffled off on rack. It was very nice, 75g/55g double stand.

That Fish Place was restocking merchandise all day long. They have a 125,000 square foot warehouse behind the store where they keep their merchandise. They also run the mail order operation outta there. It was amazing to see people walking out with reef filters etc and awhile later the employee's were restocking those items.
