this is B&J's website: http://www.bjaquatics.com/
I'm pretty sure they are still operating, I think there is a number on their site you should give them a call to find out. I haven't been there yet, I was thinking about picking up a rabbit fish from them soon.

BJ aquatics phone number is 250-573-5370 if anyone is interested and if some thing is wrong with an order I know for sure they tend to bend over backwards to try and fix it or make it better...

good people....you should give them a call and let them know what your after.
they always have a few items in stock, good cleaning supply for sure, and the stock they bring in is pretty nice.

Runing from their home.
They are expanding already though.
As for pricing, they have a price list on their website.
Most livestock items are usually compareable iin price, if not a bit cheaper than most lower mainland outlets. I imagine low overhead allows them to compete effectively.

There prices seem to be way better then anyone I have seen in Canada so far. They have prices that beat J&L on almost everything. The quoted me around $90 for a purple tang.

Here is the low down they o it out of their house is alowthem to pass savings on to you the customer They want this biss to be cost efective or hobbiest they only markup 20%.
THis allows most people to be able to afford some of the less affordable fish from LFS's. They order dry goods also on a order basis Brad is out of town t Joanna is at home. their phone mber is 250-573-5370.

I have them humnting down a couple of things for me that seem to be a seasonal type of fish.
