Default Do you know about the free corals in the ocean?

Hello, looking for a sources in YVR area for higher end planted tank type stuffs. Where do you shop, who has half decent stock and knows what they are doing, looking for hardware and planty type bits.

Also anyone have recommendations for custom tank builders or do I need to call Wendel?

Thanks, ps I would have posted this in Freshwater but I bet knowone ever reads that stinky forum.

You will probably have more response if you post on BCAquaria.

I also think one of the sponsors is into plants like ADA stuff.

Cheers,
Vic

For freshwater plants try April's Aquarium. I used to get all my FW plants and fish there. Good prices and great variety.

I'm so confused, what are we talking about here? SW Plants, FW plants? Free Corals? Tank builders?

I think it's free YVR coral plants wanted in a custom tank. Or not. I dunno.

Willow, please edit your thread to reflect what you really think you want. Please...

Welcome back! Sad to hear you've turned to the dark side. Wendell is your guy for custom tanks. There was a store downtown I used to go to for FW plants, they had an awesome selection. Pets West I think it was called, on Burrard, just before the bridge.
