Well, it seems the Franklin HD is still outta Southdown. They said they are waiting for a shipment, but the person I talked to did not know when it was supposed to arrive. :roll: I'll call again this weekend to see if its come in. Boxster, I should be able to pick yours up if you still...

Sorry for the delay Boxster. Work was busy the last couple of weeks so I neglected the hunt for Southdown :wink: I should be able to check the local HD's for more within the next couple of days. PM me if you don't hear from me by Saturday!

Boxster, I have 4 bags and I've realized I only need 3. So, I have 1 extra already. I'll call the stores and see who has more. How many bags do you need? The 50lbs bags I bought were $6.99 each so whatever you feel is a fair price since I'll actually deliver them when I get the chance. :wink:

Boxster, I have a sister in Prairie Grove which is right next to Crystal Lake. If you need some I may be able to help you out. Got any frags? :lol:

Well what do you know?! First store I call and they have some! 8O I'll be heading out this evening to go pick it up :twisted: I called the HD in Franklin and they had 7 bags left, the lady said some were damaged so hopefully I get the NON-damaged ones (I'm getting four of them). Thanks...

alrmc4, did you ever find any good stores? I live in Pleasant Prairie and do the rounds, so if you need help just port it here and I'll help. And yes, I do know this is an old post :wink:

Almost forgot to mention "Something Fishy 2" in Fox Lake. They are expanding their store so may or may not be fully stocked, but they usually have a great selection of Corals and SW/FW fish.

Well, I'll start calling the stores tomorrow. Need to get some soon! I'll respond here tomorrow if I find any. Scuba_Steve, thinking about making a SW pond or what?!

Well, I just joined and decided to give my 2 cents on lfs that I frequent. I'll also say Living Sea in Park Ridge is a nice shop. People are friendly but prices aren't cheap. Another of my favorites is Old Orchard Aquarium (used to be Sea Shell Pet Shop) in Skokie. This shop is also NOT...

Hey, do you guys actually call every Home Depot looking for Southdown?! I need at least three 50 pound bags for my new tank and refugium. I'm actually in Pleasant Prairie, WI. right over the border. If any of you know any Home Depots that have any now it would be greatly appreciated, and yes...
