Anyone know where I can find these fish here in the great white north? I've phoned all the fish shops I can find and no one has any.

Have you tried getting your LFSs to order them in? They can apparently be ordered in to Canada... there was a small fish store up here in Edmonton, that ordered them in. If they can ship them up here, they can surely be shipped to Vancouver... you could even try asking Big Al's to order them in. Seeing how Big Al's is one of the largest fish stores in Canada or even North America, I'm sure they have lots of buying power.

Try king ed pets, they seem to have a good selection of hard to find species. If by chance they do have it, make sure it's healthy and in good shape because a moray eel I bought from there wound up having a pretty serious illness.

Great White in Maple Ridge (right on the Lougheed Hwy) also seems to carry a good amount of species that are not found at most LFS around here. (604) 465-0006

I just remembered while chatting about to a co-worker today that we'd seen some at the south fraser pet store. If you're comming up king ed hwy towards main st. turn left on fraser and it's on your left side. I think the exact adress is 28th and S. fraser. I bought my green spotted puffer and my brasillian puffer there. They were very helpful and take good care of their stock.
