Pet Store in LaX

[pogodzib]

The pet store that Lori and Jeff visited in La Crosse a week ago is the La Crosse Tribune's "Business of the Week" The article even states that they get visitors from as far away as Rochester, MN and Eau Cliare, WI. Guess who's been sending those visitors over his way.

Thanks for sharing! It was interesting.
It must be a very nice store if people travel that far to get supplies, corals, fish, etc. They must be doing something right. Maybe Greg can get to be as popular as they are... if he isn't already. I know that his business will grow - he's got the knowledge and the personality.

Ok Shelly... what do you need? I love the compliment but I smell a wish list following it. All kidding aside thanks for the nice words. Someday when I am the biggest store around and filthy rich I will make sure not to forget the people who helped me get there. I will always charge you more than regular customers . Oh wait maybe I should keep my mouth shut until I get paid from all the people who their names are up on my board. Hi guys you know who you are .

While you're asking what people need, I could use some hair algae for my new tank!!! :-)

The store is one block east of the Hardee's by Copeland Park on the north side of La Crosse. The store's info as taken directly from the article is below. I believe he has 7 tanks with corals now. In Onalaska, we still have Petco and Marine Land, along with PetSmart now being open in the old Cub's Food building. PetSmart had buckets of IO salt for $43 (regular price) last time I checked.
