Hi Cugio

Actually, we are a local fish store. Our address is:

Bay 4, 3650 19th Street N.E.
Calgary, Alberta Canada
T2E 6V2

You can find this address and our hours of opperation on the 'Contact Us' page on our site. What we don't have is a full retail display with staff as we feel this would add too much overhead. To keep our costs down and continue offering the best prices, we have taken a more minimalistic approach. However, you are invited and welcome to stop by for a coffee whenever you are in the area.

The trick to navigation on our site is a little different than most traditional sites. There is a good overview of exactly how this works and some of the other advanced features here:

Essentially, once you enter the lighting category, there are additional filter options that appear above the main navigation menu (top left). Within the lighting category, you would have the option to filter based on:

* Manufacturer
* Fixture Length
* Technology
* Price

For example, if you were looking for a 4 foot LED fixture, your search results would be reduced to a total of 5 products.

Others have pointed out that this takes a little bit of getting used to, but once you've seen it, browsing products is really easy.

You do raise a couple of good points though. In particular, I will update the site to make sure that everyone realizes we are a brick and mortar store.

Take care and hope to see you at the store sometime soon.

Also, its not very clear that this is a web only store and not a local fish store that we can visit.
