LFS on the Island?

ldzielak · #1 11-27-2001, 08:36 PM

Having just moved back to the Island, I'm going through with drawl!! No more browsing the store for interesting items [img]images/smiles/icon_sad.gif[/img] From what I have found there is nothing left for SW or reefers except in the Vitoria Area. Any stores worth seeing in Victoria?

Good evening Lee,

There isn't much in Victoria right now, that I'm too happy with. There is a new one opening in the next week or so. Marine and fresh water aquatic only. No bunnys or iguanas (not that there is any thing wrong with bunnys or iguanas) Selection will be great and I'm sure the prices will be very competitive. I know the person opening the shop and have seen the setup. I think there will be alot availible not normally seen on the island. [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

I'm going to see the owner of the new LFS in the next couple of days and will try to get a more concrete date. Until then enjoy the snow [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

The new store, Hillside Marine-Tropical Aquatics, will be open for biz on Friday, Nov 30. Selection won't be great for the first little while until the tanks have really matured, but it will still be decent. No Hagen crap for sale there either. Lots of lighting stuff (VHO, MH, etc). Rock is competetively priced against the mail order shops. I think we're going to have a great store in Vic finally. It will be the kind of store you can drop in and have coffee and hang out watching all the little critters.
