Need Calgarian Help

[kimax]

So seeing all the hype about Calgary fish stores, my friend and I are taking the time to come down from Edmonton and check a bunch of them out. My question is, what would be the best plan of attack as far as which store to visit and in what order. I have read some previous threads on this topic so I am more concerned with what order you would do them in.

We are thinking we would like to see -

Red Coral
Gold's
Ocean City
Pisces
Riverfront

Thanks for your help!

Pisces
Big Al's
Riverfront

I shop at RC, Oceans and Wais.. they often get alot of the same shipments in.. I find RC seems to get more diversity. But really.. I suppose it comes down to what the next shipment has in store.. I was just in Oceans the other day, they had awesome fish selection, really weak invert selection.. and were re-setting up a tank for a big SPS shipment coming in soon. So, just hope you come in to town on the right day.. and every shop will have somthing good to offer. Worst part is.. there so many shops.. you will want to check out all of them, then go back and get what you want..

I would do the opposite. From your list I would go to pisces and riverfront first and end off at Red Coral since you will be least likely to buy livestock from your first couple stops and more likely to find something at the other three.

When i go down i go to Calgary. I go to pieces then Big Al's ,Gold's, elite Wai's ,Ocean City then finally Red Coral . Gold's and Ocean City have the best price on fish IMO. Red Coral always has some nice frags.I always spend more then i intend way more .Hope this helps

I'd go with wignin it if you wanna visit all those shops with the least amount of time. But if you want to look at or buy the best livestock red coral, ocean city and gold's would be the go to places. Wai's is good too but I've only gone there once so I can't say much.

+ 1 there is too many stores to waste any time, skip riverfront, some how they managed to move to a new location and not improve at all.
