What are the prices and pick up location?

 

[ReefDiver]

My 2 cents: Beautiful website, but operation is still under construction. I was in on Saturday and bought 3 colonies. Didn't see a tie-in between store and website, and I didn't ask. Prices were okay, still better than most other stores. I think we all got spoiled when the Yonkers store had ridiculously low prices, (Whatever happened to Ivan?) and you could do some negotiation on the quoted price.

For me, they're good guys, quality stock, some great hit-or-miss deals and still the best value around.

The tie into the online store is the back 2 tanks, They are disconnected from the others
They are there own separate system now.

We are building stock for the website ::witch is not 100% done yet::


Stuff like this takes time, doesn't happen overnight. Takes time, patients, good people to trust and money.

In no time things will be up and running, no need to bash or get confused between the website and store.

We do offer shipping fedex next day, as well as same day delivery services to the 5 Boro's, Long Island, Connecticut, west Chester and New Jersey.
Minimum purchase order for same day delivery is 200$ any toll that need to be crossed are paid buy the buyer, a small gas fee is asked for as well .


You can PM for more info if you are interested in the same day services. We are always trying to bring new ideas into the hobby. I think delivery services are really good for local people as well as people who can't make it to our facility, give buyers a good experience and a fun twist to see everyone's beautiful tanks .

Thanks for all your time and comments.!


The store is STOCKED come on by and check us out. We have a nice fish selection right now and a wide range of corals. Something for everyone.

-HOT REEF.

I liked it when Ivan was there also. Great customer service plus the tanks had the prices for the fish marked on it. Not saying that its happening but don't want to feel like Im being priced based on my level of experience.

 

[coralcruze]

so am I understanding that the online corals are now only in the back two tanks? Reason i ask is that when I was there the online corals were all over the store.

 

[Max Reef]

Yes we moved them into one place again. The 2 tanks hit a mini cycle a weeks or so ago so had to wait till levels baselined again.

Yes you read it right. The corals are in the back 2 tanks again. What ever is marked on the tank that's what it is.

I don't know if I'm saying anything wrong, but people seem to be very confused about things.. I'll sum it up very fast so no more questions have to be made again. But I'm willing to answer anyone's questions!

Okay 2 back tanks are meant for online ONLY if you are in store and you see something you like ask an employee for help. They will be more then happy to help, if they do not know the price they will make a call for you and get the price if that item is able to be sold.


We are currently building allot of stock to keep the tanks fully stocked for all our customers and online sales. There will be hundreds of frags available at any point in time. That's the way we would like to keep it so there is a wide range for people who do not have the room for big pieces as well as the high end section. Enclosing zoas, chalices, acans, torches mushrooms and SPSfourth and so on. We want any customer to be happy at any given point of the transaction from the first hello to the next hello.



LITTLE ABOUT THE BACK 2 tanks.

Under the hood- about to be placed is going to be a ReefOctopus SRO-5000 (EXT). can't wait for that to get locked into place.

We are running reef Brights for softies, acans , chalices.

The 2nd to last tank has a 20" lumenBright pendent powered by a lumentek 250w/400w select-a-watt ballast, with a 400w 20k radium bulb with a radion siting side by side of the pendent.

Total water volume is about 550G+



So I hope I cleared things up once again.

Be well, be warm, it's cold outside grab a buddy and come on down.!

-HOT REEF.

I agree. Spoiled by Yonkers prices, but still better or as good as most alternatives. Selection (of fish, particularly) is very good.
