I recently got a Matted File fish & an Apitasia Zapper from Paul @ Oceanic Corals. The file fish did a lot of hard work before I got the Zapper but took take of some of the big ones myself.
Edit: nice to see a newbie to the forum form Red Deer, Welcome.

With shipping it was around $100, they are one of the sponsors here and are located in Alder Grove, BC. I should have bought 2 so I could rent one out

NOPE!!! I will not deal with that jerk as long as I live. I would like to put him out of the SW business for good, but can't seem to find enough people interested in taking a 15 min drive out to my place if I was to set-up shop here.

What's an apitasia zapper? I could sure use one, I'm sick of trying to inject the darn things! They just keep coming back no matter how many I get!
