Personally, I have learned so much by working in a LFS (i'm 18 and i started working at your age), especially in regards to customer service and how retail environments work. So even if you aren't working for an actual paycheck, i'm sure you gained a lot. Hopefully you will be able to find a new store to work at in the event that Something Fishy closes its doors.

This looks like a cool project, and i wish you the best of luck!

Thanks, It was very sad news for our club and he will be dearly missed.

Wow, I just talked to your boss about a month ago on the phone. I live in Apple Valley and I was asking about the new location. He seemed a little frustrated and stressed out, and now I know why. My condolences to you.

If you want some free plant trimmings let me know. When I trim stuff I just throw it out. If you scroll through my journal you'll see what plants I have: 12 Gallon Reboot — Learning Experience

I don't trim all my plants, but I do trim my rotola, cabomba, hydrocotyle tripartita japan, and have a ton of java moss in another tank. None of them require much light or CO2 either.

Ya, he was very stressed for about 5 months during the move. But a few weeks before he passed away he was very kind and clam. Wish I would've been able to get to know him more.

I'll have to keep those trimmings in mind as my plant selection is pretty 1 dimensional.
