I would think J&L would be your best bet.

I found J&L had a nice selection, and they have great fish, too, so order as much as you want at a time as otherwise shipping will kill you!

Be careful about ordering clean up crews.
Most of them contain hermit crabs which are predators. A couple of them is fine.
Most of them also contain a variety of snails. Far to many for what you really need with the result that they starve and pollute your tank.

Agreed. I would also suggest you check out your local stores before ordering out of province. Blue World in Edmonton, Reef Shoppe in Lloydminster, and Red Coral in Calgary should all be able to help you out with reasonable prices, plus you save sales tax in Alberta. Bonus!
