For what its worth how I am handling it is I am making a huge Wishlist that I cant wait to give the LFS once this has passed. so I guess my money will still go to them just in a huge chunk in a couple months. everyone wins! but there is no correct way to handle these times.haha it is quite the situation I will agree!

I dont really see how you would be responsible for placing any additional risks on these people. Washing one's hands and following other guidance from health professionals is working to stop the spread. Your patronage supports the economy, something that we must do as much as possible right now to prevent falling into an economic depression.
If you dont do it now, there may not be an LFS to buy from in the near future.

My favorite LFS opened a second location on the other side of the state right before this whole thing started, so they are stretched pretty thin at the moment. I asked them on Facebook if they were still open and they said they will accept any business with open arms. Soooooo, I have a 150 dollar frag pack waiting for me to pick up Saturday.

I have a LFS that I've been trying reeeeeeeally hard to support, not just because saltwater fish stores are scarce around here, but the owner is a really nice kid with a lot of knowledge and passion for the hobby.
I literally find excuses to go to his shop on my lunch break...
"Yup, out of frozen food again... ain't it the darnedest thing? I could have sworn I picked up some last week... Let me get that Solar Wrasse too.... And a few of those small frags... "

I know how you feel, there is only 5 saltwater stores in all of Idaho and 2 of them are sketchy and have some shady business practices, so I try to steer away from them.
