Where in calgary?

[CM125]

Where does everyone buy their stock from? I am really weary about buying anything online, but they seem to have limited stock at Big als and Pisces. Is there anywhere else in calgary that has good selection and reliable stock?

Red Coral and Golds Aquarium both typically have good healthy stock. Pisces is hit and miss as is Big Al's. Ocean Creation and Wai's have limited stock but can be okay. Riverfront has let the quality of their SW stuff drop over the last while. Just my 2 cents from several trips to all in the last few months.

you could always tell the lfs to order the fish that you want for you

Top 3 for livestock are definitely Golds, Ocean and Red Coral. (Not necessarily in the order).

The others are usually more expensive and the advice given is often not very good advice.

Red Coral, Kevin and Doug are awesome, they will take the time to explain things and help you get the best stuff for what you need and within your budget.

Oceans is ok but he doesnt post prices and sometimes I wonder if the price is consistent every visit.

Wai's is great if you want large chunks of coral as he sells you the coral attached to a fair size rock for a pretty good price.

Golds is good to find fish I find the coral selection to be hit or miss.

Those are the ones I do the rounds too. I also hit up Big als and Pisces from time to time.

I shop at many LFS in Calgary: Red Coral, Golds & Concepts, all are good, great people running them.

For online, you shouldn't worry if you deal with reputable ones. I myself shop at J&L, I actually just did an order last friday for some of my bulk things like Calcium, Mg, Alk, etc. Again, also very trustworthy, BEST pricing overall adn FREE shipping!!! When I order online from them, I usually have it in 3 business days.
