Lots of us are getting gift cards this Christmas and we are going to want to spend it on fish right?! Do me a favor and let’s give back in a small way to our favorite local fish store and share this to your story and tag your local fish store and their city/state.

Mine is reflectionsaquarium.biz in Jacksonville, Fl

In Oregon it was

In Washington it was

In South Carolina it was

There’s so many stores I’d love to support, who’s yours?

Enigmatichromis lucanasi - one of the newer described and captive kept species in aquaria. I’m lucky enough that my friend who imported five pairs a few years ago got me these fish and I’ve enjoyed them sense.

This is soooo important. I can’t stress it enough! Get your scape, get a par meter and spend a few hours before you do anything planning out exactly how your lights impact where you can place corals. Most good local fish stores will rent a par meter for $25-$35 or you can purchase one like: https://amzn.to/2L1WNRG
