Red coral! not sure on stock that you're looking for but they are by far the best in the city to deal with! Great guys!

Sorry to rain on your parade but there is no such thing as the "best" there are many great stores in Calgary...Golds, *removed* Ocean city, *removed* and Red coral. I have been to all and they are are great. ask me which one i would go to most...it would be Golds as they are closer and I know them personally. If I had money for unlimited gas I would visit each one once a week just to see all then new and exciting things they get in.

I have made the round trip to all of them in one day. It was a very fun and expensive day! It seems they all tend to have different selections and are all very knowledgable and friendly. This has been my experience anyways.

Yup, I do the same thing. Make a trip down there and try to visit them all. I think they are all great.

Golds and Ocean City have fire shrimp in stock as of a few days ago, haven't seen a fox face lately but I already have one so maybe I just didn't notice.

kdpuffer here is where to find Red Coral, you should check them out.

As newb who gets to Calgary and edmonton once in a while it would be nice to see a list of stores in both cities along with phone numbers and addresses. Maybe this is something you old pros could do for us :biggrin:
