We have the best cop story, don't we?? hehe

I have more where that came form too :)

Not knowing all the members here I can't say we have the 'best' story, but I know we definately have the absolute BEST story :lol:

Hmm,
What are you holding back ?
I thought I was part of the worst part of your childhood :razz:

That was just one night Greg, of many :)

It's not me in the pic, I have 20 years on him.

There is a story floating around in MTL that this one guy was getting staked our for weeks before the GRC broke down his door in the middle of the night only to find a coral grow-op.

Our hobby looks really suspicious...not only do we light things up, there are usually people coming and going with coolers and bags and such. Neighbors are probably like, "Why don't they even try to hide it?"

Not sure about other cities but Edmonton police services will register you into database with the narcotics unit as reef hobbiest.
There have been a few large scale tank owners that have had police at door for high electrical bills.
One guy I met (runs a dozen halides) had told me that the narc unit stated some grow ops will use large reef tanks as a cover for power consumption

I knew a guy that ran a grow op behind his guppy raising farm. Had enough heaters attached to justify the output. Just half were disconnected.

I am not sure if its just Ontario, but its 100% illegal for a power company to give the police data on power consumption. The police must have reasonable cause to get a search warrant which gives them access to the hydro data.

Here's another good one kind of old
