Hello

Just wanted to say hello to all STARS reefers. Just moved in to El Paso from Tucson. Was also wondering what part of town are the lfs. I currently live on the west side of town. Thanks in advance.

Thanks all, my name is Albert and I currently have a 150 gallon mixed reef. However, the main display tank is not running. All the critters are in a 95 gallon tub.

Hi Albert, to answer part of your original question, there is several LFS in town. specially on the westside (3) if I am not mistaken. 2 on the east side of town and I believe one central. now forgive me for not knowing the exact adresses, but I am preatty sure if you google it you will find the locations. hope this helps.
