New store in Pa.

I was driving through Frazer (Pa) yesterday and thought I'd take a look in the Frazer Zoo.
It turns out that The guy who was in charge of the fish and reptiles (I talked to him a hundred times but am not sure...I think his name is Mike) bought the place from the old owner and is making it a Totally aquaria and reptile store. I think it's going to turn out pretty cool.
If anyone is passing through the King Of Prussia, or Exton areas, swing over to the Frazer Zoo and check it out. He's just getting started so he'll need support.

How are their livestock prices, quality, and selection? Do they have healthy looking fish? I saw this place driving down 30. It's in the shopping center with the DMV right? I've been dying for a local place near Exton where I can buy quality, reliable supplies and livestock! Anybody let me know what they thought ?!

Does he have any saltwater livestock? And if he does and he just doesn't have much selection is that just temporary because of the changeover right now? Also do you know what day of the week he usually gets his deliveries for livestock in? So that I don't miss it when he does get some in!

What is the name of the store? I just went where I thought it was (it's closed of course because I was too late) but the name of the place is Aquarium specialties and research center. Is that the right store? In the shopping center with the DMV? If not where is it , and what is the name?

Went and saw mike today. He was a very knowledge and genuine guy. His livestock was a little low because he did not get a shipment in last week because Christmas was on a Wednesday. For everyone who wanted to know, his shipment days for both salt and fresh are usually late Thursday afternoons. He will also order anything you need for you! And his prices are ridiculously low, shhhh don't tell anyone !

Just an update on aquarium specialities in frazer pa. Mike is great! While the store is small and his in-store selection is minimal, he will order you anything online!

1. The livestock he orders online is of the best quality. (I've ordered a raccoon butterfly from him and flame angel on two separate orders). Both healthy and beautiful fish.

2. The supplier he orders fish from is the same as the live aquaria website, so you know it's good quality.

All in all I would recommend purchasing fish from mike
