Default 100% Best Service in calgary

My dealing with the owner and staff at redcoral has been very very satisfying.
I Love the choice of stock inside the store, even got some things special ordered and had them arrive 2 days after.
As for advice I normaly go home and research what a LFS has told me only to find contrary advice online, not the case with redcoral.
I had to have some bulkheads drilled in 3 of my tanks, one still with living enitiys within it, doug an employee offered to come to my home to drill me my bulkheads saving me much time transporting my tanks, all 3 bulkhead holes were drilled and i was on my way right away to plumb it all up.
I have never seen a sick fish here and the quality of the coral is very impressive, and even if they dont have what u need at the time its there a short few days after.

My best dealing with a LFS ever, the owner is very knowlagble, I purchased for my extra tanks some hardware and got the best advice ever.
For my sump they are going to custom build me one, and i must say at a very decent price.

I also bought some t5 lighting and MH here both with good advice and pricing.
Thier location is pretty easy to navigate to being right off john laurie and near northland mall.

If you have never been to redcoral take a nice drive and really ask them some questions, you will be very happy with thier answers.

My next purchase for hardware from these fellows is going to be a dart sump pump, and im pretty sure im in love with one of thier clams.

Give these guys a nice rating if you enjoyed thier service, they are under new ownership and are true hobbiests not wanting to sell you everything you dont need or cant use. I really think this place is going to go far.

Well thats about all i can say about these gents, they even told me about canreef.com /

Yes, I concur. I went to Red Coral for the first time about a month ago. Kevin was awesome to deal with, always cheerful, always willing to talk. Always has a good deal on things, even throwing in a frag or two which my purchases. I've been to every other store in Calgary, and none have the service and care that red coral does. Kudos Kev.

One of, if not the only, place in Calgary that strives to provide the BEST customer service!!! (No matter how many times you have been in the store just browsing!) I too can not say enough about Kevin and Doug. They always stand behing their livestock/product and are always willing to answer questions. Thanks Guys!

Hmmm haven't been there yet, perhaps I'll give it a try when my tank is setup.

Is there any chance you guys could make an ora fish order? I going to try and make my tank 100% tank raised... perhaps a pair of the ora banggai's?
