Hi I'm and islander too in Nanaimo and I am thinking about setting up a temperate tidal pool in a smaller tank I have kicking around. So far I've written the DFO (Department of Fisheries and Oceans) to enquire about the legality of collecting for aquarium purposes and have recieved the "your request has been forwarded to the appropriate authorities" response. This was a couple of weeks ago but I'll keep ya posted.
I go out fishing at least 2-3 times a week here and see some really neat looking auqatic life each time. Though if set up I think I'd prefer to make a tidal pool tank. I'm kicking around some plumbing ideas to simulate tide ebb and flow.
If anyone is in my area and wants to see how my reef looks. Let me know, we could maybe even arrange a frag swap. I keep mostly softies and LPS.
