Why not start the Edmonton one up again yourself? Thats all I did. The founder of the PG Tank Tour only organized it for the first two years while she had a commercial interest in it. Once she closed her business the Tank Tour would have ceased to exist as well but I stepped in, grabbed her contact list and began coordinating it myself. At one time we had as many as 30 people show up to a tank showing but these days we're lucky to get 15. But its the same 15 people we've grown to know well over the last few years. Occasionally a newbie joins in with a bunch of questions which is great. But its just as much fun to sit back with some familiar faces to swap fish stories and see how everyones tank has progressed over the past year.

House for sale, tank potentially included! Here are some pictures of George's aquarium from this weekend.

Doug's reef tank showing is next on Sunday March 10 and then thats it for another year. Bring on the sunny warm weather, spring is around the corner! Just as soon as this snow fall warning passes...

The PG Free Press was nice enough to do another article on our Tank Tour and this time they even gave us the front page!

Thanks to the story in the Free Press we had a really good turnout today with nearly 20 people showing up almost all at once. It was a great way to cap off the tank tour for another year. Here are some pictures of Doug's tank this time around.

Once again, thanks Russell for organizing yet another successful PG Reef Tank Tour!
