King eds is redoing a bunch of their plumbing now and may not be worth the trip at the moment.

JL aquatics is the only game in town really.

They make the most of it and should be worth the drive.

You're better off to arrange to see a few local reefers than plan any kind of lfs tour here though.

Pm wheelman for example.

Guaranteed you'll want to bring some things he's got home.

The Patullo bridge is undergoing closures and single lane traffic. The Alex Fraser was crazily backed up Saturday afternoon. If time's an issue, I'd take the Port Mann.

+1 and +1.

So on Sunday, you are on the East side of the Port Mann?

For corals go hit up Ryanerickson, and for fish go see Kevin at Net Caught Marines Direct (FB). Both are in Surrey.

Default Looking for LFS options in Lower Mainland

Really?... King Eds in New Westminster, J&L in Burnaby, and Aquariums West downtown Vancouver are the only saltwater supply stores available to us here in the Lower Mainland???

Are there not any other options available to us??

& "Yes" I do love visiting other reefers and seeing what they have & chatting, but there is something fun about cruzing an actual store with corals, fish, equipment,.... I do realize that the digital age and certianly this bullitin board has certianly improved the reefing hobby, not to mention the great fellow reefers I've met. But a brick & morter store has something to offer too.

Can anyone think of any other lower mainland fish stores for reefers?

I have never heard of this place and the Facebook page did not have any up to date information - can anyone elaborate?
