Elkhart Residence....is this you?
Hello.
Every night, when I drive home, I always pass by a house on the corner of Beardsley and EdwardsBurg that I presume has a salt water aquarium. I can see the blue lights and the tank from a distance and always wondered if it was anyone's tank around here.
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

I think I know the guy. I live over on Cedar, and I work at Martin's Pet and Garden Center. I think I know who it is. He's a customer that I've really gotten to know well because of his reef tank, and he told me he lives on Beardsley, towards the bridge. That's right over there by Edwardsburg.

Hey,
Aqua, It's hard not to notice the living room blasted with (it looks like) 14K's.
Led, Martins (the grocery store?) has a pet center?

Well Yes and no, Elkhart's Martins DOES have a pet store in it, but not Martin's Pet and Garden. Martins Pet and Garden is a totally different organization. See http://martinspetandgarden.com

Yea I know but I was just giving ya some stuff. I'm a kidder. When you get to know me that is how I am. I think the same thing when I pass by houses. Either they like growing "plants" or they have a fish tank.

Woah sweet! I didn't even know we had a website! haha. Yeah we're a totally different company than the supermarkets. Everyone calls and asks which grocery store we're in. WE'RE NOT! Corner of Jackson Blvd. and 2nd St. Across from the Dairy Queen, downtown.

I've gotten a few fish from them and have been happy. Better than a lot of other LFS.
My reef tank is in the basement - where peepers can't see into as easily  |
