Busy board today... ;)
Where, if at all, do you guys get choice pieces of LR in town? Not box quantities, but showpieces. AJ |

Been stopping in at Danny's for 10 or so years; I guess what I should ask is what about the shops in the south end of town? Only am familiar with Pisces and Wai's, really.
Heard of a place on 17th ave SE that I should avoid, and obviously Pet-land, the aiptasia farm up near my place. Any other gems? I get mixed reports about Riverfront: some like, some really don't like... AJ |

i dont really like riverfront as well but like you said some do and some dont.
i wanted to go visit the place on 17th but dont know where it is or what it is called. i heard they have great prices on corals. there is always big als on macleod and heritage. i will let you form your own opinion on their rock. they do have rock at a great price now but it may not be what you are looking for. |

Is it Bow Valley Aquarium maybe? It's the only place I can think of that might be on 17th but I thought they were wholesale only. I tried to call them once, I forget what I was looking for, but they shooed me away because I am not a business. If there is another place I wouldn't mind checking it out too? Can someone let me know the name or an address if it's not Bow Valley that we're talking about?
Nice weather out there! Id a grade tide for be to catch a code too. sniffle sniffle. Buh. |

Gold Aquariums
They had quite an assortment of live rock. couple tanks with sparce ammounts of corals few weeks ago they supposedly had lots and prices mostly reasonable on them. a couple of small tanks with marine fish. their prices on dry goods was very reasonable compared to other lfs in calgary. of course not as good as the online stores (eg. JL) but decent store. mostly Fresh water as their sign says. hope this helps. |

I was wondering if anybody else has ever gone to tails + scales. It is fairly small (the fellow runs it out of his basement) so the selection is not huge- but the livestock is fairly well priced and he will special order for you. He does not have live rock (so this is not really a reply to the question.) It is located in the south near Anderson Rd.

Has anyone visited the new place on center street? Ocean Aquariums, I think the name is. Center and 26th, or so. I haven't, myself.
(btw, my new 204 gallon is being delivered Thursday night... :D . It's 72L x 30W x 22 deep. I'll post a pic Friday. Spikehs, I've got a pretty large birdsnest colony that I can frag for you. But I'll warn you now...it's a VERY high light demand coral. What lights are you getting? Mitch |

A guy I know got some rock from Gold and said it caused him problems. I got the impression it had undesirable hitch-hikers. Their rock is sometimes advertised at very low prices, compared to others.
