I resolve to..

1. Still have a tank by the end of 2014
2. Not crash my tank in 2014.

Anything else beyond that is icing on the cake.

Looking Reefbrites in Canada.

I'm trying to find a retailer in Canada that carries Reef Brites and can ship across Canada. Or maybe a local retailer in Calgary ? Does anyone know of such a place ?

Thanks.
