Sea side aquatics legit?

[T33BLACK]

I found a 150g peninsula with stand and glass sump from sea side aquatics which seems like a great deal for only 2100 brand new. Anyone heard of them or dealt with them? The tank is an Aqua Japan?

Best reef ready tank deal of 2024 - whose looking for a new tank?

I’ve been holding off on posting this but now I’m ready I came across what I believe is the absolute best deal you’ll ever see on a reef ready system Background - Current USA had a custom tank built for their marketing photos. It’s all over their website under the sections for r24 led reef...

If you’re referring to Seaside Aquatics in Anaheim, CA — yes, legit. I bought almost all my gear there. Tom is a great guy!

Yes I am! I was just concerned because they said they want me to use zelle or venmo (since im not a business) to pay and it seemed a little scary

Yep that's the same company thank you so much! He has a 150g peninsula with stand and sump for 2100 seemed like a great deal

They are a wholesaler typically that’s why

They are legit and are the US distributor of bubble magus among other things.

I ordered a stand and mount for my skimmer from them and emailed them ahead of time asking if they would fit and even showing them which ones I had, he said it would work just fine, so I ordered them. Came and and didn’t fit, messaged him back and he said “oh yea if you had told me which skimmer it was I would have told you it wouldn’t work” and wouldn’t refund or exchange.

I have it in writing where I told him exactly which skimmer I had.

I ended up having to mod it myself to make it work.

So less then Steller customer service but seems like others have had better luck.

Seems since they wholesale they don’t really care about small orders.

I would avoid this highly! It gives you absolutely ZERO recourse should anything happen.


If they do you like they did me you’ll be out of luck for a lot more than me

When I ordered my skimmer and pump I was thankfully able to pay via credit card. Seems they have changed in the last 6 months to be even worse
