Jerry, how are you getting 5'2... it looks like he is as tall as that black tank on the glass cabinet, messure that and you can get a better idea of height (unless that is how you did it).

Hope he gets caught and quick!!

He definitely looked like he knew what he was doing. Have you looked through earlier footage to find him putting together his game plan?  Have you warned the other stores?

A lot of you are letting people in your house tomorrow. Keep a eye out for this guy and do watch your stuff too. Set up a camera if you have to. It's to bad we have people like this.

If you do see this guy, watch him and don't say anything about this to him. Have someone get his license plate number and then call Jerry and the cops.

Jerry, can you get us a more detailed height. Measure from the floor to the top of that cylinder tank on the glass case. I will keep an eye out for him.

Date Posted: April 09 2011 at 12:47am
To me it is also very suspicious that it happened to happen when Jerry isn't there? Seems like it was totally planned and known that Jerry wasn't there. That's just my opinion.

Wow Jerry, that really sucks! I'm way sorry! It looks like besides the obvious theft he did a lot of damage in your tank when he was trying to get stuff out. Hope you catch the guy! If you guys find out who he is I'll drive down to Utah and we can throw a blanket party for him!

I wouldn't stop at his knees, maybe feed his fingers to some big triggers and puffers. Make an example of him. What a little puke!

He's probably got them listed on eBay to avoid detection locally.  Any way to search eBay sellers by location to watch for someone selling out of this area?  There has to be a way to find him.

As far as punishment if he's caught, I say give him the lionfish spines treatment.  I read the post on the pain it causes, and it seems like that'd teach him not to stick is hands in salt water again.

If you actually remember the exact date and time.... and Jerry actually has that video from 6 months ago... and they actually get more footage of this guy....

Jerry - despite all the hassle, this theft has gotten MAs (and by association) the aquarium hobby a lot of local exposure!  I heard your ksl interview on the way to work today.
 
Good luck!  I hope they find the guy. I'm sure you won't get reimbursed, but at least you get the satisfaction of knowing he didn't get away with it.

When life gives you Limes....


Make limewater(calcium hydroxide) and drip it into your aquarium to grow your corals faster.

the body movements and style look really familiar to me.  I will send you a PM because I don't want to accuse someone just to accuse.  I do see a lot of similarities though.

Keep an Eye on KSL. They came and did an interview and are said they are running a news story tonight. Hopefully someone outside our community will recognize him and turn him in.
 
I saw the story...I was in your store on Monday to pick up a few hermits..I was surprised to see the story after I asked you about it and you said that you had a couple leads...hopefully the news story will get this jerk caught!

I say we just put him in a room with my wife and tell her that i just bought another Coral.Dead
If that does not work i have a Tube Anenome and some lions that we can place
on certain parts of his Anatomy.
With as much exposer as this has got i think it is only a matter of time.Hopefully you'll get corals back.
