I don't believe that you can get Old Castle sand in Canada. You can try to find an alternative brand named Bomix IIRC. They seem to have the stuff in Eastern Canada but I've never seen any locally.

You can always get a faucet adapter so you don't have to tap any pipes to install a RO unit.

The LG 3 series is quiet (fanless) but all the other LG pumps I've heard are quite loud due to the cooling fan.

Welcome to the club! My clown goes crazy even if I'm near the tank (she actually bites the glass :eek:)

Also, the bigger clownfish is always the female.

My Tuxedo Urchins do a good job of eating coraline. They also stay relatively small and don't have really long, dangerous spines either.

How large of a piece are you looking for? Most plastics shops sell it (called HDPE - High Density PolyEthylene). Its exactly the same thing as plastic cutting board.

It grows quickly, spreads faster :eek:, roots into the rock so its hard to remove without scrubbing (and often comes back even after the fact) and very few things eat it as it is poisonous to them.

You can pick up 1/8" thick acrylic at home depot. A small 8.5x11 sheet is about $5 IIRC.

You can heat acrylic with a lighter if you really want.
