Anyone from Nanaimo?
Howdy. I live in Nanaimo (near the Black Bear Pub). Just wondering if there are any reefers in the area, it woiuld be great to have an experienced SW hobbyist check out my tank.
Cheers, Rob Christopher

Hey Christy. Nice website! I've got a 70-gallon reef. I started it August/05 and have been taking it pretty slow, partly because it's better, partly because there's no wehre in Nanaimo to buy anything! Probably a good thing.
So far I've got about 80# LR, a sebae with two resident Clowns, a brain coral, a hammer, a mushroom leather, three really cool fire shrimp and a few Hermit crabs. Not ot metnion all the snails/slugs that have come out of no where. All are doing well, but the hammer hasn't developed as much as I'd like, and since they're a good indicator of water quality I've been trying some things to get the Calcium/Alk up. The anemone and the leather are both growing like crazy, as are the Clowns... My main pain in the butt right now is some green hair algae that annoys me and a ton of different purple-coloured macro algae that I'm not thrilled about but for the most part looks kinda cool. Have just used a phosphate sponge so will hope to see less of this stuff soon. I live near the Black Bear Pub, let me know if you're in the area, would love someone with more experience to check out the tank. Cheers, Rob Christopher

Hey Rob,
Welcome aboard. I live near Earls if your ever heading about that way and would like to check out my 90. Wife and I sometimes eat at BB Pub, I'll message you if we head that way one day. Would love to see another Reef tank in Nanaimo. A good place to buy your stuff is Island PEt Zone in Duncan. His prices are good and he gets nice SW stuff in.
