Default Calgary LFS

Hi there,

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

Golds, Elite Aquatics, Oceans, Red Coral and Wais. Probably in that order.

What he said. I think "Oceans" is actually called "Ocean City".

It depends on what you are shopping for. I'll list them in the order of quality & best selection by catagory. These stores are mainly where I shop so it's only my opinion, others may disagree.

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.
