Default What happened to Blue World Edmonton?

Hey guys,

I was driving on calgary trail the other day and noticed that the sign for Blue World was not on display over the store. Did they close or relocate? Or am I making a mistake.

I think they are moving to a different location. They put up stuffs for sale a while back.

I'm glad to hear that Blue world is coming back! I would be so dissappointed if Edmonton lost a saltwater fish store

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Seems weird to sell everything including stuff you would use at a new store I don't think they are moving but closed down

IMO. The fish store was just a hobby store as ken has a small trucking company he contracts to Sysco.

Thought is was wierd too that u would sell off everything. Visited once and got an ghetto/substandard vibe outta of it. Didn't go back. Sad news for saltwater. Good news for remaining stores!

I heard a rumor that he wasn't re opening. I don't know though but I'm with Denny on this one weird when a store sells everything for A low price just to move? Looks like a going out of business sale in my opinion.

Not on vendor list anymore either. If I was reopening in a couple months I would want to keep my vendor status

On the same not IME he has built hype about alot of orders and never came through, so it wouldn't suprise me if the bigger better store hype is just that
