![]() people who spend money on corals/fish are called reefers, they are fanatics and act in fanatical ways, ask the average person how much they spend on maintaining their cat every month(wait for what the heck are you talking about look...) what other industry has soo many variables?(animal health, price, varitey....) majority of freshwater fish folks are not like us either, they glance at the store tanks and drop their jaws when they see the crazy expensive $15 cichlid.....
thanks for the math correction,,, lol, a little off.... vancouver is close to kelowna and reefers research their hobby, they know mail order saves them money, and the population here is not large enough to loose its core buyers and stay afloat... there are 2 business in kelowna that carry reef stuff that are worth going to, one is in the front waiting area of a mechanics shop, the other is in a basement in an average neighbourhood... the reason they stay afloat is because they have almost no overhead for what they do.... if either opened up a seperate reefing store, they would go under, we cant support a store with vancouver so close by offering things at rock bottom prices..... |
