I had made comments in some past posts about smoking at sho tank. Just want to say that I went in there today and didnt smell any cigarettes. The owner was very friendly and very helpful and knowledgeable. I am happy I gave them a second chance, will def be going back there.

Matt is good people. He doesn't try to hard sell you anything, heck, he even will talk you out of something you don't really need. Not many shops will do that. His corals are priced better than most and the quality is better than most.

+1 million and thanks for posting that. If a person's first visit to Sho isn't awesome, they simply need to go back.

Matt's awesome! I'll admit, my first visit threw me off as well, but my second visit convinced me that it was a great place. I'm always happy to go there! Great prices, advice, selection, it may sound like a bad ad, but its honestly what I think of Matts's place.

Made my 2nd trip out to Sho-Tank this evening. Definately glad I gave this place a second try. Awesome selection, and great prices. Picked up an awesome show sized Niger Trigger, and couldnt be happier! I'm also a good 45 minutes away with no traffic, but will def be making the trip again soon.

Matt's prices are fair and his livestock is outstanding.

park in the back. it's much easier than in front and then the huge tank in the front can be the last thing you see!

Matt is simply the best , I have been keeping saltwater fish for close to 20 years and have been to every store around and have even transshipped them in . I currently have a 20,000 gallon tank and everything in the tank has come from Matts shop . I could buy livestock from anywhere i like but I dont even bother . the corals are always perfect and so are the fish . people would kill me for how I add my fish but I have never once had any disease problems in my system . good fish and a calm environment with perfect water quality goes along way . dont waste you time and money anywhere else go to the man who has what you want .

Matt just received some high color and good mix of SPS colonies; worth the trip.
And you would have a hard time finding a better price.

Do you still have my Green Carpet Anemone, it was 1.5' when I sold it back to Matt.
