Off the top of my head there are about 10 or so independent salt water stores and 5 or so big als stores in the G.T.A. ( GREATER TORONTO AREA ).

I went to an independent store a few months ago the prices like most of the independents are roughly half price or less of bigs als and better quality.

I bought a large green carpet , a large green white carpet, and a lager plain color magnificent anemone for $150.00 and he threw in 2 anemone crabs.

So, wow the prices there are INSANE !!!

The average price for a large green carpet at Big ALs is around $100.00 or a LITTLE more. The independents can vary from roughly the same prices to a half.

If you look at the BIg ALS weekly specials on the weekends you will have a good idea what the going prices are here. Again Big' Al's is the most expensive for live stock.
I'm trying to put this a gentle as I can, perhaps these comments are best made via PM...

If this was a build thread or a thread on carpet anemones etc this would be totally appropriate and encouraged conversation. But on Buy/Sell/Trade thread it only makes it more difficult for the seller.


There's a price that makes it worthwhile to part with it, and there's a price someone is willing to pay. Hopefully those 2 are in the same ballpark. If not.... well there's always Big Al's...
