Aquarium Advice Freak
First Post, and first SW aquarium.
So, to really start from the beginning I have two basic questions.
1.) Where can I get a decent quality stand furniture wise. I have been to the three aquarium shops in the city and they don't offer anything I can use. I want my aquarium to look as natural in my living room as I want my fist to look in the aquarium That being said, I hae a contempory decore but everywhere I go online wants 2-3K for just an enclosure! Do you guys know of any vendors with decent prices (1K is what I am looking for max with aquarium).
2.) The above mentioned aquarium shops are, shall I say, unimpressive. One seems to have knowlegdable people passionate about the hobby and a passable inventory, the other two were so horrendous I wanted to buy the few sickly fish they had just to put them out of their missery. This leaves me in the postion of, as a beginner, having to order and do things online for the most part. I have seen sights that actally sell fish/invertes/live rock through the mail, is this really even a plausible way to go about things.
BTW, this is my first SW tank but I have had FW tanks for years, so I am not entirely clueless, just mostly
Thanks.
