I'm not sure of the owner's name... the place is "The Aquarium Shop" on Cox
Ave. NW, right by the intersection of University Blvd. and Memorial Parkway
(behind Shoney's, you can't miss it!). I understand that pet stores have to
mark up live animals because of loss, and if they bought some GAR for
$3-5/pr I'm really not surprised that the retail price is $19.99. I worked
in aquarium stores during high school and I've seen the stresses up close.
Just an observation on the modern condition...
