Thanks Mak. I haven't heard about Petlovers before. I'll look them up.

Hey Sam, if you talk to Rob at Pet Lovers... tell him Jeanna says HI!! Rob's store resides in the WEST OAKS Mall. That is on South Fraser Way before SEVEN OAKS Mall (if you are going East).
I think the road GLADWIN is between them (if that helps).

Hey Sam,

Give me a call when you come down, unless your good at bargaining with the prices :D . You will find you can usually get a pretty SWEET deal. Like I got some awesome Polyps redish yellow ones ( these were in his diplay tank and I had to kinda work to get them...LOL ), blue ones and yellowish green ones on the same rock for about $30-$35 each with about 150-200 Polyps ( hehehe sorry Bob [img]tongue.gif[/img] ).

Thank-you mak for the crab link. did find some other websites to check out. Yes the emerald does get big, according to some exasperated reefers who found out they liked coraline algae and kept getting bigger. So thanx. Emeralds off my list. Do you happen to know where you can pick-up these boxer crabs. I don't have anemomes to feed porcelin crabs anenome crap. Say that five times. What a mouthful. Yuck.
Happy reefin George Muller

DM1, try King Ed's. They should be able to get them in if they don't have them in stock. I saw them once at Petland in Langley. I don't think there safe with Blue Legged Hermits. I've seen BLHC's try to chase them down. My BLHC's have been banished to my Sump/Refugium :D .

BTW, I don't think an Anenome is a must for the Porcelains/Anenome Crab's. I'll guess I'll do some reading tommorow.

Aquamansilver, let us know how that goes. My last Yellow Polyps came from SWC. There were about 12 on the rock, and soon there were no more. :(

Like this Aquaman? Got mine for $19. It seems LFS prices are getting more competitive.
