Where should this go?

Not sure if this belongs here but I have been watching this site for a while now and there is one thing that really seems to stand out lately. There seems to be a number of members living in Alberta that are shutting their tanks down. Is there a reason? Are the water perameters very difficult there? Its just an observation but I am curious as to the reason. Is it just a cycle? Just seems to be more people in BC selling frags and stuff rather than shutting down the whole kitten-kaboodle. Something that made me go Hmmmmm.

I don't think so, I think you'll find as many long term hobbiests here as out there, maybe more of yours just dump them back in the ocean.....

Kidding...I certainly hope not.....

Alberta has all the IYORs (Impatient Young Oil Rig workers) that have no time to maintain a saltwater tank. B.C. has more ppl who are settled down. JMO :P

I am sure there are long term hobbiests there as well it just seems a lot more ads for systems being shut down. Maybe the oil workers theory?? Just seemed odd..

Well stated Gary. Just another aspect of the "Alberta Advantage"
