...look so-so, sales people slightly distracted, pricing good, quarantine unknown, chit-chat fairly heavy, storefront climate controlled
LFS #2: Few clean tanks, lots of dead fish, no staff ever talked to me in 30 mins, thousands of fish, hundreds of coral, pricing ok, quarantine unknown...
...the shipper messes up, you can't ask me to give you back your shipping cost, but of course I will still cover DOA corals as usual.
Meaning #2: If your shipment arrives late, I will not cover any DOAs. You are out of luck.
I would never knowingly buy something on terms with meaning #2. But...

Bonus Entry #2:
Waterbox aquariums are great, but anyone can make a box for water. What I like is how the stands (in white) will have that clean look that'll fit right in with the house interior design! That and plumbing isn't too hard either!
Bonus entry #2: I like the waterbox aquariums because I have a friend who has one and know they are top of the line quality. Everything is well thought out, clean and very sleek looking. The thing I like most about the 70.2 is that it is long and not too high which helps so I don't have to have...
Bonus Entry #2:
I really really like the Waterbox line because of the overall quality and completeness of their tanks and stands.
The stands are solid, and extremely sturdy!! Also very cleanly made, which is obviously important since it is part of the overall showpiece after all...

Bonus #2:
I enjoy a manufacture that provides everything necessary for a turn key reef. this is as close as you can get, and the best looking in my opinion out there right now. Ive seen then at RAP and they are stunning little glass boxes
Bonus #2:
I really like the sleek clean lines of the tank/stand combo. That sump is a beautiful piece as well. Versatility, functionality, and almost as pretty as the tank itself.
Bonus #2: Love the rimless glass, and the overall minimalistic/clean design that makes you forget about the tank itself and allows you to focus on the animals and aquascape.
Bonus #2:
While I really like making my custom setup - I don't have the time to do it again with a bigger tank.
The Waterbox has all the plumbing (with Union joints!) and a very capable sump that would make enjoying the tank that much better!
