Hello all and it's nice to be back in the Windsor area for a short time. I know a few of you already from when I used to live here but to the others that I don't know, it's good to see that finally, we've banded together to create an Aquatic Community here.
This is something that Windsor has needed for a long time now.
I've been in the hobby since I was 9, making it an impressive 34 years of Fish, Aquariums and travels!
I left the Windsor area in 2008 just before everything went belly up (the signs were there) and have since lived outside of Ontario ever since. I recently (a few months ago) found this Forum by accident and finally decided I should join back up, as there is a slight possibility I will be returning here to area (Emeryville) in the next 2 or 3 years if all goes well with my current situation.
I currently am the Forum Administrator/Programmer/Skinner for Tropical Fish Hobbyist Magazine Online Forum. My passion is fish, and furthering my collection of Aquariums and Fish, like the rest of us.

Great to have another veteran to the forum! Welcome home (in a sense) and can't wait to chat about different fishy things.

Freshwater; I live just a short 10min drive from Spencer Jack.
Tons of LFS in Winnipeg, I can walk (30min) to Nestor's Aquariums Portage Location.
John Matheson (ThePlantGuy.org) is also in the area.
But Corbrets on Walker still has one of the largest Fishrooms in South Western Ontario and have Michigan at your doorstep (and GDAS) has tons of options!

I've been in Winnipeg since 2013. It's wonderful up there, LFS's everywhere.

Lovely area, my Parents bought a house off the Lake and its a great location.
Hard to believe that Windsor is only 15 min away.
