Red Coral Aquarium
 
My name is Kevin and I am the new owner of Red Coral Aquarium.I am excited about taking the LFS Calgary market to a new level. I am honored to be a part of Canreef and its society and now as a vendor my hope is to strengthen Red Coral's ties to this community. This is a new and rewarding challenge both for myself and my wife Rhonda. I am privileged to have Doug (fishytime) working beside me to ensure a high level of customer service. We are privileged also to have Greg (Coral Master) set up in Red Coral to provide his high quality and well known Frags to display.
Thank You all. Doug and I hope to see you at Red Coral Aquariums.
Kevin

Hey Kevin, it was great to meet you last weekend, I was in with my twin brother that had just set up his tank the day before. We felt very welcome at your store and you seemed to have a wealth of information. We'll be back in soon to see you. Best of luck, I'm sure you'll do well.

It is really awesome when someone who truly loves this hobby is the one who owns the store. It changes the whole experience because of the level of care and passion involved. I can't wait to come down and see what you've done with it. This will be a regular stop on all my reef related visits to calgary from now on.


Way to go and congrats!! :mrgreen:

Kevin looking forward to stopping in and visiting you guys! I try to make a trip into the city every Friday for some window shopping at various stores. Somehow I always seem to come home with something..even when I'm broke. I'm a newb but addicted already!:mrgreen:

Be prepared for lots of questions! See you soon.

Was just in and Kevin's doing a great job getting some things organized and cleaned up. He has some neat ideas (clam only tank, anemone only tank, angelfish only tank, etc.) which I think should be cool!

Thanks again, Kevin, for the SPS. Good deals to be had here, people!

motokorth 06-13-2008 10:15 PM

Was just down there today, it looks like it is heading in the right direction. Best of luck.

This is the only place in Calgary I have found that has taken the time with me, individually, to teach and coach me through my journey of salt water. Kevin knows a great amount of information and is always willing to help. The store is also coming along very nicely and I enjoy going there on a weekly basis. All the best.

Only store i go to really. Kevin is doing a great job and I would highly reccomend that if you haven't been down yet check it out.

Red Coral Aquariums 06-17-2008 01:52 PM

Thank You all for the encouragement. I have had a huge amount of positive feedback on my use of instore table and chairs and available reading material. You can research a possible purchase in the store. My use of air conditioning and air exhaust also adds to the positive experience. Thanks again.
Kevin

I was in for the first time since Kevin took over last night. Picked up a nice SPS colony for a great price. He has some really good ideas, I look forward to seeing them take shape.

Best of luck with the bussiness Kevin!

motokorth 06-27-2008 04:40 AM
