I think the best place in town for corals is aquarium illusions. They have beautiful corals and some very reasonably priced frags. I just bought an awesome frogspawn frag for 34.99 and it looks great.

I dunno about the price thing... they have nice stuff but I always considered it extremely expensive. Agreed though, the best in Edmonton that I've been to.

Ya some things are expensive but compared to what? Big als is cheap on some things but overpriced on most corals and they don't look that great. Also at aquarium illusions they farm a lot of corals. Looking at their display and how healthy and vibrant they are I have no problem paying a little more. Really where else is there for corals in Edmonton?

Compared to other Canadian retailers. But yes if I were bent on buying corals from a retailer in Edmonton, AI would be the only place I'd check.

AI use to be fairly good on prices. Recent It seems they have jacked up prices, Considering they should be going down. I bought my old frogspawn 2 heads at the time which were fairly large for 25 bucks.

I really haven't bought most livestock from them (former livestock) most from other reefers.

Since james has left. theirs no one to really bargain with.

And paying 34 bucks or whatever for a frag is nuts.

The SPS they have been getting lately is stuff I've seen before or not all that impressive and over priced. And it seems they are gettig less SPS nowadays.

So out of the store AI is the one to check on even though it may be over priced and not carry that many immpresive corals. :lol: What about frags anyone selling any SPS frags they want to get rid of.

Oh, AI has nice enough stuff, it's just, can you afford $35 for a 2" frag.
