O.K. who are the Tang Police ? Fools posting on the boards at AC ? Are you slammin' me already...? Ya', I know,that place was awesome about 2-3 years ago. A LOT of knowledgable people from around the world. They all left when the site kept crashing. Oh well,that was the past. I can't dwell on how things once were.(I doubt a six pack would make Daniel happy...)Alan,you mentioned Mitch @ Bow Valley. That's too weird because my "sister- in -law" asked me if I ever knew him back in the days of Bow Valley Pets. I met Mitch last year though. Ya wanna' know where ? Well I'll tell ya'. Ya' ever heard of Inter American Pet Supply ? They run a small ad in FAMA magazine. I had them put new front glass on my 90g,"Starphire" glass.Very clear!!! Anyway,Mitch runs that place. A great place for Custom tanks,CHEAP bulkhead fittings and hole cutting too !!! He's a "sqirrelly" bugger eh ? He was probably peddling a little more than pets back in the '70s & '80s. if ya' know what I mean...Whoaaa, you just gave me an idea. I'll bet Mitch will cut a deal for a six pack,(or a "cig").
I gotta tell some stories now...I get this way somtimes, Mitchs' shop is in Forest Lawn, it's on the south side of 17th Ave, directly opposite of Golds' Aquariums on the North. His shop is upstairs from Bow Valley Pets. Just look for the neighborhood "junky" standin' on the corner. I didn't stop to ask but I'll ASSure ya' she aint sellin' cookies. Yikes! Anyway, Mitch was preparing to ship an 800 gallon tank to a Casino In Washington State. WOW !!!! Now thats a fish tank! The crazy buggers hauled my 90g up two flights of stairs to his shop. They said anything over 200g they'd use the forklift and the second floor roll-up door. Weird place I tell ya' but they have my business becuse they appreciated it and they're honest !!!! That goes a long way with me and my money. Besides that place is worth the price of admission...
and ya, you can call me TM.I'm sure if I haven't already there'l be a few names for me...
