new saltwater store in town

Almost every day I wish that the old " Hole in the Wall" store was still around. It was my first LFS when I was about 10 or 12. They had a
SW section , and the whole till area was basically constructed out of an elabotate Trickle Filter system. And they had 3 foot sharks!! Ok they probably were not that big but hey I was only 10 or 12.

Damn I thought 31 was still young

I was saving my allowance for red tailed sharks, neon tetras and blue gorami's in those days

Wow do I ever feel old. Hole in the Wall was the place way back when I lived in good old Cowtown!

Yeah, well... if you really want to feel old, here's a thought for you:

For the people graduating from high school right now, Wayne Gretzky "never" played for the Oilers.

Some people (Edmontonians ???) still refuse to accept that he doesn't.

Oh geez, I had completely forgot, that's right, there was a period there in the 90's where it was in that same stripmall that Santa Fe Grill is in.

I was thinking of when it was on 11th Av over by the "Super-S" (early 80's). Can't remember when they closed that one.

PS. Yeah, 10 or 12, give or take ..

Memory not quite was it used to be .. um .. what were we talking about again? Where are my glasses!

Admit it Tony! You where driving to that shop just like I was!

10 or 12

The crappy thing about that shop was that it was in the wrong part of town.
