    I just wanted to thank Bill from the Fish Shack in Manchester. I ordered some mckoskers flasher wrasses from Bill but i havent had time to get them picked up for 4 weeks. Bill kept them in qt for me the whole time. Friday i talked to him and i told him i was gonna try getting their over the weekend. The store isnt normally open on Sunday but he opened the store so i could pick them up yesterday. Also i got the last box but his normal price on 200 gallon boxes of reef crystals is $50. Ive been doing business with Bill alot of years and he has always been great to deal with.

    I was in there this weekend as well. I asked about the wrasses in the corner tank and he told me they were all spoken for already. They will look awesome in your tank. I would trade a small store(shack) with good service and knowledgeable sales people any day.

    Bill has always treated me fairly.  Thats where I purchased the majority of my live rock.  He took the time to explain his plenum system even when I wasnt buying anything on that particular day.  I have found his coral prices to be pretty reasonable as well.

    I have to say the Fish Shack is pretty much the only reason I even have a tank today. Great service and local did it for me. I have bought nearly everything in my current setup from Bill and don't have one thing to complain about.
    I also just finished writing a post on my BLOG about the fish shack.

    I would appreciate any feedback on it. (since my wife has talked me into doing one, I figured what better then one about reefing)
