Damn, I have to study for my GRE exam and will miss it. I wouldn't mind being in the raffle!

T&T isn't a new store, but they've moved to a new location (not too far from where they were before, I believe). I don't go there often, but when I have been there, I've liked it. I keep telling myself to check them out more, but I get busy and forget because I'm never in that area.

If anyone goes, please look to see what stock they have! I'd like to know if they're keeping many cichlids, especially adult male peacocks and haps.

I'm confused. They already moved once. Is this their second time to move?

[Complexity]

Oh, then maybe I'm mistaken. I don't know when they moved so I thought this was related to that.

Why else would they have a grand opening? Maybe it's belated?

Okay, I really do want to see that invite. I'm beginning to really wonder about this.

I tried to go to the old website I had for T & T Tropical Fish and Reptiles, but it's gone. The domain is for sale now. See http://www.ttfishreptile.com/.

So I googled the phone number I had for them (281-933-3367) to see if there was any news, and up popped another website. This time, it's for T & T Fish & Reef at the address of the grand opening! See http://tntfishreef.com/About_Us.html.

My first thought was maybe they opened a new store, but then why would they (1) close their old website and (2) move their phone number to the new store?

So it appears they have indeed moved again and even changed their name a little.

Yup, the wayback machine confirms the old website was for the same guys. Notice that both sites say they got started in 1986. They moved again. See http://web.archive.org/web/201009210...About%20Us.htm.

Looks like they're all saltwater now. http://www.facebook.com/pages/TT-Fis...07299229356898

Hmm.. to be honest I never paid much attention to anything but their SW side with the other stores other than the one tank with the oldworld grab bag tropheus/petro.

I've been there fairly recently. They have an even mix between fresh and salt, but certainly have a fancier saltwater side. They had all the raffle bonanza crap going, then, as well.
