How warm do the oceans off the Canadian east cost get in the summer?
sorry ,I'm curious

The waters here at the mouth of the Bay of Fundy reach from 12 celcius in the open water up to a high of 21 22 c in some of the Smaller of more shallow bays. bays

And have seen some of the smaller bays water reach low temps of minus 0.1 c

Deer island!!! ahaha my childhood camping spot! home of the biggest whirlpool in the world ya know. ;)

Anyways the whole Bay of Fundy is fantastic for life, i used to keep a couple of natives off of the beach, i kept a sculpin, a wolf fish, a green crab/hermit crab colony, a red-gilled nudibranch :D, and a crap load of amphipods where always swimming around (they bred easily, and sustained a small barnacle colony). These weren't all in the same tank obviously but some shared. My point is that theres alot of interesting things in the Bay of fundy, just off of the beach...you could get into flounder, squid, sea ravin, etc

A bit more on topic, I loved the Jellyfish idea, a pity he didn't keep it going, nice idea though.

here's a pic of the nudibranch i kept...i just loved the thing so much :headbang2
