    Stopped by there at lunch and spoke with the owner. What a bummer that they are closing down. They have until the 24th to liquidate everything. Stop by and see what you can get, there are some acros and other SPS as well as a lot of LPS in stock.

    I grabbed one piece. They had others but they were in the main tank and weren't for sale at the moment.

    I went with Jeff and he grabbed a few pieces.

    Bummer as to why they are closing. I feel bad for the Andrew!

    He did advise to call before you go to make sure he is there. His store ours are not rock solid anymore as it is just him and he is doing both the services and taking care of the store.

    In a way yes. Really more like a disagreement between the owners.

    No, I am not going to bother going when he would normally be closed. If he would normally be open, we can call and go within that time frame.

    Andrew said he would be around on saturdays, but right now to pay the bills he is doing service over store because the store is not consistent, so I would just keep trying.
