The worst was when I drove all the way to Red Coral on a sunday to find out it had closed 1/2 and hour before I got there

If I had the cash in the bank I would seriously consider opening a fish store in the south. You would end up doing a good business just becuase of the fact that people don't want to drive to the other side of the world just to find out that the selection is crappy, the shipment did'nt arrive or if it did that there is nothing you want.

Hehe, maybe I'll open up shop in my basement. I could service all of southern Ablerta from where I live.

Technically there are 3 stores in the south that sell saltwater fish compared to 3 stores in the North...

South:
Riverfront
Elite
Golds

North:
Red Coral
Ocean's
Wai's

I would say it is pretty even

Big als will be in the north...uneven again.

Everyone here (except obviuosly people who work at another LFS) should pool together and run a community store...canreef...it would work they do it for other things
