Dad's in Strathcona is now carrying some SW fish and corals. I was in there this afternoon, and was surprised to see 10 or 12 of their tanks converted to marine. :)

They have a website, but it's not called Dad's anymore. Any idea what their new site's address is?

No details on the saltwater stuff they carry. Matt, what kind of fish and corals did you see there? Prices?

it wasn't a huge selection...

There was (by memory):
lawnmower blenny, sixline wrasse, flame angel,sm yellow tang, yellow shoulder (orangebar) tang, sm regal tang, a couple of different wrasses, a yellowhead goby, some ocellaris, a purple firefish, some snails, sm CBS,... and I'm sure I'm forgetting lots of stuff. <edit> I forgot some tuxedo urchins and spiny urchins.

For corals, not much. One red brain, one branch of tonga encrusted with a colony of small brownish zoos, one nice gonipora, a few mushrooms.

Prices seemed a bit lower than local, a bit higher than the coast.

Not many SW drygoods, so I'm not sure how they'll do there.
