I am coming to Calgary this weekend and was wondering what people from Calgary would recommend for a LFS? Ryan

![]() What he said. I think "Oceans" is actually called "Ocean City".

Gold's, Wai's, Ocean City They all have their strengths and weaknesses in various areas. They are all good so best to check them all. (I've never been to Red Coral........a little out of the way for me.)

![]() If you are buying fish stick to golds, they will not sell you a fish if it is not ready. They actually treat there fish. Oceans is good those are the only 2 stores I would buy anything from.

![]() I would actually put Oceans ahead of Golds in terms of fish selection. Oceans always seems to have the most variety and coolest fish (probably because 3/4 of Golds is dedicated to fresh water).
In terms of quality, I would say Golds and Red Coral are the best. Freeman at Red Coral actually gets upset if a fish dies on him. Oceans is good quality too. Wai's is horrible... I've never bought a fish from there, but I've been there about 3 times now and every time I see at least three dead fish in their tanks, and the live ones don't look too good either. Just adding that I've never been to Elite Aquatics (too far south for me) so I can't say anything about them. Last edited by Porthos; 05-03-2007 at 07:39 PM. Reason: Added Elite to include them all |
