Two Thumbs up for Barrier Reef!
I just wanted to offer my 2 cents here as well...we were in the store a little over a week ago, on a Sunday, and we also spent way too much but we happy to give Barrier Reef our business.
The day before we actually did a huge circuit of stores in Western WA...it was a long day with nothing to show for it in the end. We hit four stores covering at least 150 miles and either saw crappy tanks filled with death and doom or met with poor customer service (or even worse silly prices on top of that).
The next day we found out about Barrier Reef purely by chance and only wished we have known a day earlier so we could have avoided all that driving.
The store was filled with brightly colored tanks that all looked healthy and their prices were very reasonable on what we bought. They spent a healthy amount of time with us, answered every one of our questions, even gave us 10% off for spending too much
)).
We've decided that we would prefer to give our business to them and only one other store on this side of WA...all they rest really left a bad impression on us.
Good luck to these guys...if they can maintain the level of experience (personal, store condition, etc.) we had on our first visit luck won't be necessary!!!
