Are they open for buisness yet? I am going to Edmonton to visit the inlaws for Christmas and need an excuse to get out of the house to check out some of the LFS.

Coincidentally, I noticed this store a few days ago when I was going down Calgary Trail. I stopped in. They have a very light stock level right now, but a heavy investment in tanks and water, so it looks like it will be a nice place.

Good selection of the salifert kits and kent product. Light selection of other drygoods. Prices seem about average for the local market, but I didn't really price-check anything specifically.

I think I say them open until 10pm except Sunday, but that won't last, I imagine. Very noisy, with each rack of tanks dumping into sumps below, and skimmers humming along.

I'll go back from time-to-time.

I went there today (Dec.15) and they just got a shipment in. Good selection and great prices on fish. Well worth the drive. We ended up buying a Naso tang, he gave us a great deal.

I was able to stop by this store yesterday. Very nice layout, possibly the best I've seen.

Service was good, very personable. Store was very clean & the tanks were spotless. (of course they've only been open awhile)

I'll definately be back, and would recommend checking them out.

Fish/inverts selection was low at time of my visit. Has some good salt and additives etc. No frag tank yet I will be stopping again. that's my 2cent

Thumbs up

Blue World is great! I visited them about a month or so ago. They didn't have a huge selection at that time but when I showed up they were in the middle of accepting a live goods shippment and even though they were super busy with that Michelle was very helpful and very pleasent to deal with. I ended up leaving with a fish & coral. I'll be going back for sure.
