Hey Mr. Schertz,

We are fortunate to be blessed with some really great stores here in south Texas. I have many favorites but the ones I highlight are the ones that have invested the most time in mentoring me and educating me on this amazing hobby.

The question is...how soon can you get to Corpus Christi??? lol, just kidding, but my local favorite which is no secret on here because I am a raving fan of Gulf Coast Reef & Aquaculture. They are a MAAST sponsor on here and I think you will benefit greatly from their store because they have the best prices anywhere and have tons of frags for your nano, and NOW THEY ARE CARRYING FISH!!!

In San Antonio, I frequently, pretty much weekly, visit Aquarium Designs...Look for Herschel and Jason (father/son), the owners, and they will take great care of you. I also have been very impressed with Jeremy at Reefs2U.

Check here frequently and, if you like, become really active on MAAST, and you will learn so much and meet some great people!

Good Luck,

Michael
