We are located South Of Houston San Leon Texas. We are between Kemah and Galveston close to 146 and 517. I understand for most its a drive but the livestock is well worth it and there is a need for something down south. As of now we are by appointment only but we are working hard to get the shop back up and going. We will be keeping our secondary shop here in San Leon but will be opening our primary shop off of 45 South in the League City area. Due to the construction of League city we plan on opening the main shop Once construction gets better. Monday Through Friday i'm free after 4 most of the time. Saturday and Sunday free all day.

Do y’all have a current stock list to post?
Most differently we do i'm making the list as we speak and should get it out here in a little bit. We sold more than I thought last week when I did my bulk order sale so we are low on fish but we do have lots of $10-$30 frags that ate ready. I get another order of fish this Friday and if anyone is interested in doing a bulk order I can send you that list and info on that. Once I get some good pics the list will be out.

Awesome having a shop local to the area. I feel anytime I need anything I have to at least drive to downtown.

Where about's are you looking at opening the primary shop? Do you QT or offer anything like that for your fish? What do you specialize in?

Yeah not really much down this way. We're looking into the shopping center on 45 and 646.
All fish tankes are medicated and corals dipped and put in a separate tank to recover. The only time I dont qt is when I do bulk orders. That's because there only floated in the tank till the owner picks them up.

What kind of medication do you run them in? Full dose or reduced? Seperate systems or full systems.

Depends on what you get. I would say tangs average are around 40-50 depending on size. gobys around 25-30 depending on type. I do charge more for size only because it cost me more to get them over here because there shipped in more water. The biggest cost is the cites and the water. Like the yellow tangs there price has gone crazy high because there's limits on what they can catch. But if you do group buys the price gets cheaper. But you loose the luxury of them swimming around in my QT tanks before you buy. But I will say I haven't had a complaint yet on bulk buy quality.

Do yo have a fish list? @Fishfanatix
Sorry for the late reply. We are out of everything but frags. With this Covid-19 delaying and canceling flights its getting hard to get stuff over. Everything usually comes over in passenger plains but I think we are going to look into getting a shipment through cargo plain. I'll keep you posted. I do have others in the states.
