Edmonton Reef Stores
 
I am going to Edmonton this weekend to visit my Mom and was wondering if there are any good reef stores I can check out and where they are? Thank you.

OK so I tried finding:
Blue world aquarium
5544 calgary trail nw
edmonton, ab t6h 4k1, canada
(780) 758-8088‎

But I got kinda mixed up...coming in on White Mud from Sherwood Park I turned off on the 99th street turn off and continued on to Calgary Trail, it looks like Calgary Trail turns into Gateway Boulevard at about 40th Avenue...so do I turn up Gateway to find Blue World? What other stores are near it so I can try and find it? Is it on the left or right side? LOL Thanks for any help I get!

The best way to get there from Sherwood Park is, head west to Edmonton on Wye and the Sherwood Park Freeway. Just after the 50th street exit take the left side of the fork in the freeway and go to Argyll Road. Head west on Argyll to 104 Street (Calgary Trail). Turn left on Calgary Trail (South) and get over to the right lane. Turn right just before the Husky gas station into a small strip mall, and there it is.

Better yet, take along a Google map.

I'll try to explain it the easiest way for someone from out of town.

Gatway BLVD runs north, one way, Calgary Tails runs south, one way. Take the same exit you did last time, got on Gateway BLVD and head north. Take a left on 63 ave ( AKA Argyle Road) Take a left on Calgary Trail. Get in your far right lane and watch for the Husky station as the road curves slight left. It will be in the stip mall beside the Husky.

If you want I can PM you my phone number in case you get lost again.. I'm five min's from there and I can come guide you.

If it's in the evening that is.

Awesome thanks alot! I pretty well know where it is now! Once again thanks.

Well I made it to Blue World Aquarium today. I bought a few supplies from him, salt and some additives. I was very impressed with the owners knowledge, it was nice to talk to a LFS who really knows what he is talking about and he seemed like a really nice person as well! I didn't pick up any corals as I'm not sure what the drive home will be like but if I am back in the summer will definitely go back and get some...I would recommend this store to anyone that's for sure! Thanks a lot to everyone who helped me out.

Good to hear, I'm glad you like Mike and Dori's store. It's my personal favorite :biggrin:
