Kevin...I think that is one of the best ideas I've heard...I don't know how many times I have been to a reef shop in Vancouver (I live on Vancouver Island) LOVE a fish but can't get good info on it...until I find an internet cafe, or have one in the hotel I am staying at...then go back to get it the next day and ... it's gone...I'd love to see an internet terminal in an LFS...that would be sooo very cool! Even if I had to put in a buck or something to help with the cost...it would be cool with me! My husband would be sooo much happier hearing he doesn't need to buy me a nice Mac laptop! Although, I could use it!

sorry that was a bit off topic......

Question for those in Calgary who know the stores...
I lived their 5 years or so ago, (and only got more brave and started with a 65 gal salt when I moved here) I know where some of the fish stores are, but can anyone sugest trustworthy LFS's that I can check out on my way through on the 26th and Sept 3rd?
Much appreciated

Golds, Elite Aquatics and Wais Aquarium. IMO the three best stores in town.
