Hi! And where do you shop mid-island??

Have you been up to Clearwater ponds in Errington? They've usually got some decent livestock but careful on the advice there. They also have tanks there that run copper all the time so be careful of any of their water getting in your tank.
There's also Island pet zone in Duncan. A couple places in Comox but can't remember their names.
I've often gotten livestock from J&L and they fly it to Nanaimo via Harbour Air for $20 I think it was. SO you get it within a couple hours of coming out of their tanks.
