Mohaynow Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Just got back from Garrett's place and if you are looking for sps, get your butt over there. He's got some nice colonies and always extremely fair prices. (drooler) I'll post pics of the one that I got later. Believe me it was hard to leave with just one, he wouldn't accept my magic beans for trade. (sad) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobtoSalt Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 WOW. I was going to say it looks like you got a few, till I read the small type after all the awesome pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReefSafari Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I can't wait to check it out, its going to be a LONG week...I have never been there, and Im excited to check it out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePremiumAquarium Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Thanks for taking some pics are posting them up Josh! I appreciate it mang! 50 new SPS colonies just in and they are some of the nicest I have seen. These are Maricultured for the best colors, hardiness, and variety. Priceing will be very good and there will be so many choices available that you will wish you could upgrade your tank just to fit them all in it Also just got the nicest pair of Hawaiian FLAME wrasses in! Price is unbelievable on the pair. Also got in some super great looking Hawaiian Potters Wrasses, Potter Angels, and Flame Angels as well as tiger tail cucumbers and a few other nice inverts and fish. Come check the tanks out!!

Drew Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 [language filter] Garret your really making me want to make a drive up there.... one of these weekends! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonH Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I was there - in fact, in one of those pictures you can see the empty spot where my new Acro used to sit (whistle). That's the nicest shipment of mari-cultures corals I've ever seen. I'm still kicking myself for not getting the other one (also in a picture above, but looks nicer in person - no offense to Josh picture taking). The good news is that I think I snuck the whole lot (5 or 6 bags) in without the better, smarter, prettier (but less observant) half catching me (naughty). Thanks, as always, Garrett. Great corals, prices, and service - hard to complain. And nice to meet you, Josh. Oh yeah, the flame wrasse pair was pretty. But I think the potter's angels take the cake.

ThePremiumAquarium Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Thanks a bunch for stopping by Jason! Always great having you by the shop and chatting reef. I am suprised you were able to sneak all of those critters past the wife lol. I get away with it all the time but I have alot of hiding places I agree, the Potters Angels are exceptional! Thanks!

rubberduck9 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 I must re-visit this thread. I have to say this cause it needs to be said! Me and a friend had plans to head down today to pick up some stuff and my buddys wife got sick so he needed to stay home with her today. Well we had a bunch of stuff we wanted to get at the Premium A and as we couldnt make it down today I called and asked G if we could come down last night after I got off work as an emergency coral/fish run. LOL Garrett out of the kindness of his heart let us come down at 8PM last night to pick stuff up and do some shopping. As always, I was faced with insane prices, healthy livestock, and of course as much reef talk as I could handle. (Also, anyone who wants to check out an 8" Vlamingi just swing by lol). You continue to find ways to bring me back to the Salem area my friend! Cheers to you and the Premium aquarium! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael7979 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 (Also' date=' anyone who wants to check out an 8" Vlamingi just swing by lol)[/quote'] That a little guy! :) I think I can beat that...... what do you think Garrett? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePremiumAquarium Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Thanks for the Patrick! It was a great night to come down late. The wife was at a wedding in P town so I had all evening to play in the shop!! Michael, Yours are literal monsters. I mean these guys are huge. Some of your fish must be 2" thick and I know at least one of them barks/crokes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impur Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 I hit up Garretts on my way back from PDX sunday and as usual am glad i did! Got a couple of super healthy angels and of course the best clean up crew/prices around. Thanks Garrett! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePremiumAquarium Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Hey Mark! She said she saw you there as well. You should stop by some time and check out the shop. A few things have changed since you were here last Miles, you and the wife are great to talk to. Thanks for stopping by and grabbing a few critters. Those angels probably look pretty sweet in your tank! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impur Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Yes they WILL look sweet!! I've got them in a 10gal for treatment, then they'll go into my cube along with my clowns and wrasse all at the same time to avoid any territorial disputes. I am VERY excited to get them in there!

johnnyrm33 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 I've been to Garrett's shop 2 out of 3 days this week, and managed to snag some great livestock (an urchin, halloween hermit crab, 2 true clowns, some frags, and a killer anemone) for amazing prices. I'm glad I no longer have to drive all the way to Portland for such an outstanding selection. I'm pretty new to the hobby, and Garrett literally spend hours answering all my questions, and hours of me pointing to almost everything in the shop and asking "What's that?" He was extremely patient, and even more informative. It's always great to be able to talk to people that truly enjoy and have such a passion for what they do as Garrett does. I greatly enjoy going to his shop, and I look forward to many many more visits, and many many more purchases. Thank you so much for all your time, and the great animals.
