What's up with their prices? I got a gift certificate for $250 to a local fish store.
Well, I spent the $250. It was hard to do because everything was WAY too expensive. I needed heaters. They're 150 watt Stealth heaters were $49.99!!!!! Didn't buy 'em, duh! An AC 500 (110) was $89.99! Ouch!
I ended up getting a 30" Coralife 1 x 65 watt light fixture; $30 overpriced, a HOT magnum $25 overpriced, 2 bags of Flourite, a Hagen bubble counter, Seachem fertilizer, and 3 bunch plants. Spent $250.68.
Don't get me wrong, I love going to the lfs. I do love the convienence of going to the store and looking around. I'll buy something or another, but man, why are their prices so ridiculous?
