i would definately like to see a red coral in lethbridge. then i could get my SPS fix on a regular basis. the higher end products (corals and hardware)that we are not used to seeing around here would be a plus also.

Its all about Fort McMurray. 100,000 people with money to spend and a booming population with no where to shop. There is no competition, and no where else close by to shop. It is insain that there isnt a quality salt water store up here. Everyone up here including myself orders online.

Don't forget Red Deer!!! I think we are just like Lethbridge, in population and interest. With no real dealer with salt water in Red Deer, I think it would open the door to a wide range of interested people. Just a thing to think about.

Part of me agrees. When I was up there only one shop handled anything saltwater. However, between lease rates that would kill a small store and employees who want around $15 to arrive regularly (more if you expect anything approaching a feeble attempt at actual work) I doubt that a saltwater shop up there could be competitive with big city and online prices.

I agree lets get back on topic... Can't wait for this store to open up here in Lethbridge!!

i also cant wait for this store to open. there is a few things i need soon (that the local stores can not get or care to look into) and i dont want to make the drive to calgary right now.
is there a rough date for this store to open? i have heard rumours of a date to open, but would like to hear it from either the people opening it or from kevin. just so we can look forward to this.

I agree ... its kinda funny how much of a "soap opera" of rumours there are floating around as to who, when, where?
I'm just as curious to find how close RC is to opening down here!!

The who and where will be revealed as we progress to an opening date.

The when will be also answered once a lease is signed at a selected location.
We are taking steps to implement this store in Lethbridge but it is taking time and we will continue working on it over the summer. This thread was to inquire as to its feasibility and we have determined with a location in Lethbridge with close ties to servicing Medicine Hat is very viable.
Thank you for your patience.
