But the hardware on sale in Victoria is mostly low end, and quotes I have gotten for some high end stuff were just off the map - ie something in the $3-400 range for $1200 - that's just crazy. $69 for a coral that is $39 in Vancouver is OK, but the hardware prices are insulting.

Ya, I agree. It's nothing against local pet stores, but I just can't justify paying extra thousands of dollars once it's all added up just to support locally. I will buy most of my livestock from them though.

My 180G tank has two 1" holes drilled on each side of an external overflow on the right side of the tank. I'm using a Tunze 6110 with controller for circulation on the right side, but do you think a Mag 24 or Mag 36 will provide enough circulation on the right side or should I get another tunze?
