I got lucky today. Was able to get the salt/tank and accessories that I wanted. - They missed the discount on my tank at the till though.(have to go back tomorrow when its calm to get a refund) - Nate and Dave were tonnes of help. Thanks guys! I'm starting up the 37g Cube this evening. Looking forward to moving up from my 10g.

Soooo many people there though. Shows how many marine guys are out there in this city. Met two really nice gents at the front of the line with my GF and sister. Didn't catch your guys names though!

Didn't catch the name of the two guys I was behind with the larger flat deck cart, but thank you guys for passing your shopping cart to me so I could load my 3 buckets. I'm sure if I had to go get a cart, I would have missed it.

The staff were awesome today, but they need a better till system to work with. Even if something temporary could be brought in for the day, they could probably increase sales by 50%.

LOL - there was a reason why after seeing the insanity at BA's we went straight to golds, and I headed straight for the salt

BA's was insane! But did you guys see the <dime sized blue tangs? I was getting all kinds of bad idears about those guys. Too bad they looked so beat up.

Yeah, I saw them, but at $75 a pop they were pretty price for the size.

Did you manage to get salt at Gold's? You should have been there in time....

AndyL · #7 12-27-2005, 12:12 AM

Oh yeah, first through the door (sorry guys - ya shouldn't have waited in your cars). Salt was pretty scarce. Betcha alberts pretty tired tonight!

I didn't see pricing on the babies, saw the big ones with that price...

Those little blue tangs are awesome! Too bad they get way too big for me as adults.

albert told me someone from edmonton scooped them all up

I saw you there Andy but I could get your attention through the masses of people. I was in line outside at 8:30, by 9:00 the line up was backe up past the laundry mat.

I got every thing I needed including my LR, salt and reef crew. Went home after to get to work on the tank when an old powerhead of mine crapped out on me. So back to BA's again to get a powerhead, each time the line up for the cashier was past the shark tank!
