Just wondering if anyone is near mid-Mich. I can't seem to find any other reef keepers nearby?

Not quite mid Michigan. I'm in Grosse Pointe. But I do get to Lansing once in a while for a hockey or football game. Any good fish stores in your area? I have a 55 now but am in the process of setting up a 90.....or maybe a 120. GO SPARTANS!

Gary,
Ah a fellow Spartan fan, good to know. The Wolverines didn't have a chance. Boo Hoo Hoo

. There is a great store here in East Lansing Preuss Animal House. They have a large selection of equipment, fish, inverts, hard & soft corals, all the animals I've got from them have been very healthy. There is also a store in Ann Arbor called Coral Reef, he's just getting started, but he's got a great fish selection, and gave me a great deal on 660 ballest and uri bulbs. I'm in Detroit alot, any good stores that way?

Hey Nick, I usually go to Aquatic Discovories in Sterling Heights. I want to check out Tropicorium in Romulus. There was an article in August Freshwater & Marine Aquarium. They are suppose to be the world's largest coral farm! I think I'll pay them a visit once my 90 is up and running. I'm in the process of getting a skimmer now. Any suggestions? Everyone seems to have their own favorite. Right now I'm kinda leaning towards the Turbofloter 1000. I really don't want to spend more then 200 bucks.
