They open at 11am BC time, which is probably 3 hours behind you? Ie., right now it's 10:45 Pacific so they would not be open yet for another 15 minutes.

oh I see. That explain why each time I call I don't get through. We have 3 hours difference so they actually open at 2:00 pm my time.

An update has been requested.

So the update is that I have the Biocube14, stand & most of the equipment here. My LED friend is retrofitting a 4x10w dimmable LED system with timers and individual dimmer switches controlling the 454nm blues and the 10000k whites. I have the 15 lbs of live rock cured in my sump. I have several mushroom, 3 different photosynthetic gorgs, some palys and zoas, some pulsing xenia, waving hand anthelia, and Kenyan tree frags in my various tanks waiting for transport. Claudia has generously agreed to donate her Mandarin goby that has been in captivity for months already, since this is Jasper's family favourite fish all-time.

I have been offered a pair of Grade A Snowflake clowns from a Canreef member who breeds them and they will be Fedexed to me later this week. Jasper likes Snowflakes the best, so that's what's going into the tank. Someone has also offered to buy a refractometer and several people have either Email transferred or donated to the "Bucket List Jasper" account specially set up at J&L for purchase of other livestock, equipment or supplies. I have created an Excel spreadsheet to keep track of all the donators and donations to give to Jasper & his family. If you've donated money to the J&L fund, please pm me so I can add you to the spreadsheet. Before or just after I set up the tank, I will post on this thread & on the one on Canreef a copy of the spreadsheet.

Saturday, June 15th at lunch time (firing up bbq at 11am) I will be hosting a POTLUCK BBQ/Get-together for all the local people who are donating to the Bucket List project. Already have 20 lbs of chicken chopped, marinated and stored in my freezer. I will also be preparing some Rosemary/Thyme/Oregano with red wine & garlic lamb for the bbq. I will create a new thread so people can let me know who is coming, how many are coming and what they are bringing for the potluck. Remember to bring whatever you're planning to donate for this Bucket List Reef, whether its livestock, equipment, supplies or $$.

Sunday June 16th is Father's Day. I will pack tank, stand, equipment & other dry goods in my CRV.

Monday June 17th, I will pack everything all the live rock in my cooler with water, and all the livestock & jump on the ferry with Felicia for the 5 hours drive/2 ferry ride trip up to Powell River. Hoping to catch the 7:20am Horseshoe Bay to Langdale ferry which means getting up at 6am latest. Then the 10:25am Earls Cove to Saltery Bay ferry. That should put me in Powell River and at my friend Marie's place around noon. We'll load up 3 salt buckets with new pre-mixed saltwater and head over to Jasper's house. Hopefully be there by 12:30 and start setting up tank.

OK, I think that's about it for now.

Again, thank you everyone who has so generously contributed to this Bucket List Reef system for Jasper.

Sincerely,

Anthony
