It is a good deal. I bought 5 from them a few weeks ago to set up a little matriarchal clown fish society. So far so good. The biggest one clearly is asserting itself as the matriarch; and the next biggest one occasionally would shimmy in front of her, showing his good move . The smallest three innocently swim all over the tank, oblivious of the naughty interaction between the two bigger fish .

Trenton,
Tell us more about your long term plans for this aquarium.
For example:
Are you planning to keep corals? If so, what type? Would you like to add an anemone?
How much live rock have you added (or do you plan to add)?
How deep is the sand bed?
Where is the tank located (basement, bedroom, etc)?
Do you have a heater in the tank?
What are you using to move the water around?
I am excited to see you so involved with your tank. I'm also very glad you like the oscellaris you purchased. This was a very smart selection for your first fish. They are hardy, nominally priced and super fun to watch.
By answering a few of the questions above, we can help you decide where to go from here. There are so many options (as you saw last night), and with some thoughtful planning, and patience you can have a stunning aquarium.
Keep me posted ....
