well today I am eating some words I know a few weeks back I made a comment about jl that I was not happy the way I was treated on a certain occasion well today was like the fight you have with the wife and you come home to a cooked meal and the fight is over, well I walked in to jl today and they were just opening the bags of newly arrived sps's and all of assudden I forgot what I was upset about.bottom line is they are the premier importers that I know about in the lower mainland and perhaps further and I walk out of there with a smile on my face for more times then not Jamie

Hey Jamie I must have just missed you..

Was there after everything was taken out..

Shao and I both bough stuff.. For me it was a beautiful tri color colony and a Gold Maxima.. I think he was leaving with two colonies.. if not more.. lol

Had great service.. They are a great place for getting in what we need arent they?

I leave with smiles all the time as well..

Man are we lucky..

After shopping in Victoria And moving here I feel like a Kid in a candy store..

Jeez Darren, you are gonna have to set up the 125g pretty soon to hold your livestock!! That is cool that you got a tri-color though [img]images/smiles/icon_cool.gif[/img] what colors is it?

Jamie,

You did not happen to pick up a purple acro for $25 did you? If so I was standing right beside you when you were looking at the sps tanks, I believe you don't like porites or hydnophora(?). They did get a fair amount of nice colonies, I must have left just before Darren and Shao arrived.

Bruce,

Its a blue tipped cream color.. with green polyps.. bright green.. you should see the maxima.. Gold flecks with a dark brown/black mantle.. SWEEET.

And the colonies in teh store were awesome.. Too bad it wasn't this weekend you were over.. Serious.. There were some really nice ones.. And I wish the big tank was up.. I'd have cleared the store out..

That is cool that a few of us were there shopping so close.. lol. Tho when you think about it.. where else would you see reef geeks on a saturday when a shipment comes in.. lol [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

hi,

I wish I was there with you guys! I am so envious of you. You guys can check out sps at J&L, while I can only stare into my computer screen here in California. Can't wait to get back to BC and setup my sps tank.
