Hi Kevin,

Thanks for posting your thoughts and offering us a warm welcome to your trade show. Hopefully there will be lots more of these events staged for the Pacific Northwest.

Looking forward to experiencing your show and koodos for organizing such a great event.

Cheers,

Paul

Welcome Kevin! Glad you stopped by. I can't wait till July!! Its gonna be awesome and I hope to see more shows in the PNW!!! :biggrin:

Hey Paul,

now that we are getting close to the event, do you have any details to share with us regarding the purchase of frags - and where you guys will be hanging out!

Thanks, its's getting close now - very exciting.

Looking forward to meeting some fellow canreefers on the weekend. we are travelling with another couple from Edmonton.

We are the other couple:biggrin: and this is going to be a fun show!
Only a few more sleeps left.

Hi All,

I will be at the Hikari Trade show booth most of the 2 days and will check back often if I miss anyone, you can leave a message with anyone at Hikari on how I can get a hold of you during the weekend.

Regarding livestock and bringing them back, for all interested parties please email me or PM me for details on this. I need to find out if there's enough interest to warrant the administrative fees involved to bring the corals back.

For all Islander people who are interested, the logistics have changed since originally making this post and Harbour Air no longer flies direct to Victoria via Langley. In order for me to ship corals to Victoria, I now have to travel to the Vancouver Airport to ship through Harbour Air. This is a 2 hour trip for me and unfortunately I now have to take fuel cost and my time into consideration. If there's enough people on the island that want to have their corals shipped Monday after they've crossed the border I will have to charge a small handling fee to cover the above costs (fuel and time) as this is a not for profit service that I'm offering. Hope you understand.

I will be staying at the hotel so everyone is welcome to come up for drinks or meet up for dinner. Please PM me if that is your intention.

Thanks and see you all on Saturday.

Paul

Thanks for clarifying this Paul. I can understand that this is a little out of your way - do you have a normal handling fee that you charge for shipping livestock? I guess before I can decide if this is an option, I'd need to know how much we are talking about. Could you also ballpark the admin fee you are mentioning for the admin of the order?

So Islanders, who is interested in having this shipped in one big order? We'll need to know by Friday so we can make a decision on what is involved before we get down there and see all the fun stuff they have. Or are there any Islanders who are going by OC on Monday and can facilitate the transportation??

I might actually be able to attend..yeeehah!:biggrin:
