listen the prices are beyond fair, Service is Okay can be better at times but how can you blame them? I dont see anyone harpping on any of the other stores that are in long island or manhattan with there insanely high prices and some of the stores in long island dont even care for there corals and will try to sell them at retail prices even if its almost dead and you try to buy it to revive it. I dont see anyone doing that, Theres some stores in the city that sell $40 ATI T5 bulbs.....
like come on, I know there is no prices on the fish tanks at MAX REEF but Hey If you see it he has fish flying in and out of those tanks daily. He gets about 3 fish shipments a week i think maybe 2, For him to write prices on the tanks and take time for him to see witch fish are where THats money out of his pockets for his workers, By the time hes done writeing prices on the tanks by the end of the day he has to take the prices off cause all the fish are almost all gone.
Its not like some of these stores you walk into the fish have been there for 2weeks+ and covered with ICH or you see cyno in someof the tanks or you see floating fish dead everywhere. Ralph is doing a good job, Sometiems the workers can be a little bit nutty and not knowing what there talking about, Again you cant blame them i no they need to know prices cause they work there. But thats why you always ask questions. It never hurts to ask a few people prices in the stores.
some of you people need to take that into fact that fish fly off those tanks like hotcakes so does the coral half the time. If you take notes you see how there are certant sections of the frag tanks where the coral doesent really sell and tehre is prices on there. But also when ralphy has the time he does take that orange/yellow marker and trys his best to get some prices on those tanks.
Just my thoughts.
