Question What would you like to see in your local Fish stores?

What means the most to you?

1) Service?

2) Price?

3) Exotic stuff?

4) Wide selection across the board?

5) Expert opinion / guidance?

You tell me what makes you visit some stores, and others not so much.

(REMEMBER NO STORE NAMING OR BASHING, THIS IS WHAT YOU THINK YOUR PERFECT LFS WOULD BE)

I believe that a LFS should be all of the above.

Just my 2 cents....

It snapped off tank.... basically a frag sections tank where there are rows of egg crate with $ 5.00, $ 10.00, $15.00, $20.00, $ 25.00 frags...

Just mark the row and place them on it...no muss no fuss.
I bet they will fly out and saves them from being left to turn white in the tanks.

I don't see dead fish, my local fish store is very clean and they keep all the fish healthy, I would however like to see rare specimens.
