I've been up to pisces a couple times this last week. I have to say I'm really impressed with the staff that are very helpful. You feel like you can ask questions there without feeling like an idiot for not knowing the answer.

I remember being there two years ago and all the fish looked sick with ich etc. Today all their fish look totally healthy and they have a huge variety.

What a turn around from a couple years ago.

Default lfs in calgary

First of all I don't work at any lfs. I have shopped at them all before and i can safely say that the crew at Concepts is the best. Just want to give a shout out Dave and his crew for the most crazy selection of corals/fish out there and prices that you can't beat. By far the most chill place.

I am getting back into the hobby and Concepts was my first stop. The store is looking fantastic with all their changes and The staff are always helpful.
Thanks Dave for helping me fix my plumbing problem with my 74 gal tank! Once its up and running, Ill be going back for a sump build for my 50 gal cube I finally picked up that Concept built for me.

ive made the rounds in the past and i will again tomorrow.
been to wias before once and it was ok yes higher prices and he was busy landing fish so didnt expect much attention.

concept was great a few years ago but since then for me has been in a state of change and reno so i will pass judgement again tomorrow

golds been to once the last time i was in town good selection on fish and helpful staff.

riverfront i went to years ago and knew i would never go back after walking in the door the smell of death when you walked in the door turned me around and walked out didnt need to see anything to pass that judgement.

big als i gave several chances and the decline of stock and fish selection and health of the fish has removed them from my list now.

pisces i will return to as there has always been a good selection.

for prices does it really matter? you will pay wnat you want for the fish of course you will look for a better price but if you want that fish in that tank the you see right now your going to pull out the card and pay for it leaving happy because you got that fish.

being form a city with a much smaller market and only 1 lfs which i would stack up to any of the best in alberta for service knowledge and pricing.

if i remember i will post again tomorrow or sat with updates to my experiences.
