I'm surprised you're surprised given the geographical difference. In Regina they are 40$ but that's a whole different story in itself.

Good call Jeff,seriously bayside isn't a big company and the heck with your LFS..it makes me laugh.

It makes me cry lol. I go in just to marvel at the livestock prices.

I know tell me about it,how about 79 bucks for a mandarin goby ?? always good for a laugh.

Ya but he's a sweeeeeeet goby!! lol

Think of it this way.....

Vancouver is a major shipping port for Canada. Corals and Fish may come from Fiji, Indian Ocean, Vietnam, Hawaii, Pacific Ocean, etc. It will always be cheaper to ship to Vancouver as it is closer than the Prairies. Prairie stores may have to get items shipped through Vancouver, hence the extra shipping resulting in a higher retail price.

Just to rub things in a bit more, J&L sells Green Mandarin Gobies for only $14.95! :wink:

Believe me the concept is not lost on me..lol We are just having some fun at the expense of the LFS that seems to think he can ask what ever he wants, He thinks we have no other alternatives.

I do have to give him credit for his dry goods and frozen food selection..Prices are decent.

Haha! Maybe he thinks he has a monopoly on Aquaria. :wink:

Speaking of Online Vendors..........Do any of the online stores have a male Melanurus Wrasse in stock?

Nobody in BC has any.............:sad:
