Hi there Van Islad reefers, I have a question for anyone who lives or knows about Nanaimo. When I lived there the only place to buy reef inhabitants was Pet Cetera is there anywhere else now? I used to buy all my stuff fom a place called Reef Zone, but that went belly up so Im just wondering for when I come back home where I can find some decent Items.

You can try My Fish Tank. They carry marine livestock. Their address is 11 Cliff Street, Nanaimo, BC (250) 741-0021. Its at the intersection of the highway and bowen road (tally ho/civic arena intersection) behind Mr. Lube.

We have fresh air here, too, but it's too freaking cold this time of year to breath it for any length of time :puppydog: Maybe I can be an honourary Islander :biggrin:

Thanks, Tyler :biggrin: Spent two weeks there in the 70's travelling east to west, then a bit up north. Had a great time. Wonderful, magical place, but I'll bet it's changed quite a bit since the old days. What's the weather like out there these days, just to make me REALLY envious?

Its been a bit colder last week or so. Dropped to a chilly -2C BBbrrrr time to get out the parkas LOL (grew up in ON so I can make fun of the nice warm climate lol) But this too will pass and we'll be in warm weather again. Heck I had to mow the lawn on Dec 22nd it was too long and looked crappy for Xmas. heheheheh

Beverly

Mowed the lawn just before Christmas, eh :cool:

Good weather news here for tomorrow - it's going up to -3. The next few days are forecast for lows ranging from -25 to -31 with highs of -22 to -13. Pretty standard stuff, I'm afraid. I gotta find a way to like winter here more, which isn't easy since I've lived here all my 45+ years :confused:

I lived in Powell River for 4 years & took care of 3.5 million fish/year. I even had a truck & a 18.5' boat with a 220hp BMW inboard motor. Can I be an honourary redneck :drinking:, I mean Islander too? :lol:

ya, so my day goes like this, show up for my last day on the ship and pick up documents I need to take to my new unit.

lot of work going on so they ask if I can stay till noon, OK, end up staying till 3, and just before I left I find that they might be pulling me back to the ship for a 6 month trip to help rebuild the villages that were destroyed by the wave. so I could be leaving at the end of the month until the summer sometime but I am going to try fight it. I figure after almost 16 years I deserve my shore posting. :rolleyes:

SCrazy,
Will those houses you build come with in the wall reef tanks? :lol:

Seriously, if you do end up going, we will be very proud of you & your sacrifice to help those poor survivors. My CanReef buddies & I will drink a toast to you whenever we get together :biggrin:

If I was in my 20s & single, I would have caught a flight home since that's my part of the world that was creamed (born in Penang, Malaysia - off the west coast). Fortunately for my family & friends, the island of Sumatra, Indonesia took the brunt of the force or Penang Island would now be gone. Thank God for Penang's good fortune, but at such a cost.
