Kelowna Fish stores question

[Oscar]

Thanks Cav. I will be in Vernon later this week. I am hoping to visit all three to do some more window shopping.

Reef Keepers had their tanks poisioned a couple weeks back, so they don't have a very big selection right now, but are building back up. Keep that in mind when you visit. They usually have more.

AJ's is getting new stock in this Thursday, from Bali. But they are pretty tight on letting things go before Sunday. Which is kind of good, but not good for out of towners

I do not have a tank just yet so I am still in the window shopping mode. I just put in a request to the town for a print out from their recent water quality tests. Hoping I can avoid installing an RO system.

As an extra bonus Summerland is supposed to be firing up the new water treatment plant in a few weeks time.

Although every one's water supply is different here in the valley are you guys using tap water or RO system?

I was buying RO water from Save On...found out they have a tds of 8 ppm, and I was having some minor algae issues, so I recently bought an RO/DI unit. Now that I have 0 tds supply water I have noticed a difference. I haven't used tap water in 6 or 8 years...causes too much trouble.

I've been buying water from a local water place...don't have the setup for an RO system yet. Plan to build a new house shortly and will have everything in that.

I work for a bottled water company so free water, until I get my fish room finished and reassemble my RO/DI. If I can remember how to hook it up. I would so to the grocery store and buy water before I would use tap water. To much invested. And the fustration that comes with algae problem.
