    You would be better off going to Water World Aquatics in Silvis Illinois rather than Teskes. Water world is pretty new but better than teske

    Well Teske was closer to Aquetic enviorments and Coral Haven not sure if we can squeeze it in or not and I personally dont know about Silvis or how far away it would be ,, we plan on finishing at Coral Haven
    Its something we can consider,,

    After a trip up to Waterworld Aquatics I have decided to include it as our 3rtd stop , we stopped in and had a very pleasant talk with Travis the owner and liked his new store ,,thanks Jeremy for the tip,,

    There's a little ceasers a few blocks from my shop that could bake up a few 5 dollar pizzas really quick.
    If we pooled some cash I could run and pick them up really quick so they'd be here when you guys got here. There is quite a few nice restaurants that you'll be passing during your travels though so that might be a better choice.

    Also, I have a pretty big coral shipment coming in next week so I plan to have a lot of crazy unique stuff to drool over. Still working out what sort of tank tour discount I'll offer at the time but I'll try to make it an extra special one ;)

    That sounds like a good idea to me I am not sure how many we will have so the way I think that would work I would have to take a general consensus at our first stop and then Call from there to let you know ,,
