Petland

[canadawest]

Petland is in Langley (Fraser Highway & 194th near Willowbrook) It's in a strip mall on the left hand side if you're coming from Surrey.

When I was just getting into the hobby (before I had a tank setup) I would go see them for info and pricing. While they have a fairly knowledgable young guy there (cant remember his name now, but he was studying Marine Sciences at UBC) their prices were always higher than other places, and their livestock was pretty pathetic. I can't recall even seeing corals in there, but then again I was still setting up and hadn't really considered corals yet.

I do remember seeing the most disgustingly filthly "display" tank there, and decided that I would never buy livestock from a place that doesn't even do maintenance on their own systems.

I haven't been back since. (Feb'01) Thank God I found DaleD and Animal House, and John and Allen at J&L Aquatics. And some thanks to Nick and Jamie at Fishworld in Delta for some of the dry goods when I started. (Except for the recommendation to use CC for a sandbed, grrrr)
