Foster and Smith is where I've ordered most of my food and supplies from over the years.Hopefully Petco doesn't raise the online prices.

I have a feeling this will increase the prices. I'll probably just continue moving towards Amazon for fish related items.

that sucks. all my best prices on food are local.

the less stores there are, the less likely you are to find deals...

I switched to kensfish too, and sometimes Amazon. Foster & Smith had the slowest shipping I've ever seen... Haven't ordered from them in years, but I agree less competition is not good.

Kens fish is always the place to go to for food and main stream equipment... but only thing i go to fosters for is Glass tops. Versatops at Drfostersmith always cheaper with their coupon deals

They may also do away with the free shipping as well..I guess it is time to move on and check out Amazon and the highly heralded Kensfish.
