What online coral store do you recommend?

[MikeJ]

I have ordered from @uniquecorals, @Battlecorals, & from Jason Fox multiple times - highly recommend.

I think I might give tidal gardens a try.

I just saw this coral on the website. Is it a good coral?

I actually have a ton of that. I like it, but its spreads like crazy real fast.

They usually have a sale once a month on their youtube channel. You can get a lot of great corals at a pretty large discount. Its possible that might be in the sale, who knows.

edit: just checked, its actually this weekend.

Awesome i think I’ll wait for the sale. How does the sale work? Do you watch on the YouTube channel and then order on the website?

If I remember correctly - They have a live show link on their website where they post the corals as they show up on the youtube live sale. You can buy them right away, but I have also waited until after the show and even the next day. The link is still up with the corals, they just might be sold out by then. They usually have multiple frags.
He goes over the process at the beginning of the livestream, its pretty straightforward. Its just been awhile since I did it. The livestream shows the corals in different light spectrums, similar to the website.

Honestly the livestreams are pretty chill and relaxing so I like to put them on in the background even if Im not buying anything.

I feel like im coming off as a Tidal Gardens sales person lol. I do want to add that I have ordered several times from TSA and corals.com as well and have always been very happy with them.

FishofHex is another good one, but he has more limited selection since he sells out of his main tank. He is currently running a 50% off sale so worth checking out. https://fishofhex.com/

They run live sales here. I'm not a fan of live sales but the after sale is where they discount the stuff that didn't sell on the live sale and that's where I shop. They call it a flash sale so watch for those. These are a few of the $10 frags I got last week. Lights haven't been on long.

Aquasd used to be great. I don’t know what happened but I had a rough experience. They refunded me minus the shipping but in the end it was a super shady situation and I will not order from them again.

They actually called me on the phone to bypass the eBay messaging system, so they could break sale contract terms without a paper trail, which didn’t give me proof to report to eBay.

No. Thank. You.

All the corals that came were also wrong and not the corals from the wysiwyg pictures.

Thanks. In the end I paid shipping for corals I didn’t order.


Unique Corals is great. Battle corals is the best for SPS.

I ordered from vivid aquariums recently
First order wasn’t 100% great. Owner took responsibility for website description being inaccurate on one item and for another item not shipping well. Gave me full credit + they have a 14 day guarantee on coral which I think is pretty good these days

Despite the first order I felt the company was fair and polite, friendly, and the owner assured me my next order would be perfect. I did make another order for a millepora and 4 gonipora. The order was perfect, healthy corals, pictures matched the website. I am happy with this order


Another great shop with a cult following is @SBB Corals I’m very happy with my last order and have another one in the works. Owner is friendly, 14 day guarantee, free coral with purchase over 49$ I would recommend them any day of the week

If you buy from the classifieds section on R2R you can save money compared to some of the coral websites. You can even save more if you buy from local folks. If you are looking to buy from online shops I can also vouch for #battlecorals for sps. #sbbcorals also is another vendor I have trusted. Fraghouse Corals also has some good deals when he has sales.

I want order some corals online. What place do you recommend? Every time I order online I feel like it’s overpriced.

I'm a big fan of @Pieces of the Ocean but I'm local to them so I've never had a delivery. As far as quality and health of the corals goes, they are top notch and the guys are great. So I'm betting the shipping is very good.

 

[jermzisurmom]

I rarely order online but I have a couple of times. I like ordering directly from Biota and KP Aquatics. All of Biotas Captive bred and aquaculture stuff is very good and I have never had any pests.

KP Aquatics is great for Caribbean stuff. From my days in the fish store, I learned that the shorter the supply chain the better Ordering directly from the source whether farm or diver often yields the best livestock at the cheapest price
