Bottom line is that Bil Als is well organized, well stocked, helpful courtious staff, and more plants than 90% of the stores around here.
While some of your critisisms are valid, complaining about decorations in stock tanks seems like nitpicking. I found it refreshing to have something other than completely bare tanks.
I have no affiliation to Big Als

They have a great selection of everything and tend to cater to the exotic and hard to find things. and there show tanks are to die for
