Frequently Asked Questions
WHY ARE YOUR PRICES SO AMAZING?
Our mission is to spread reefing across America, and to do that we want to make as many corals (and many other ocean friends) as affordable as possible!
As a group of family and friends into reefing, we know how expensive this hobby can be. Oh trust me, we know. Our wallets know.
To make things more affordable for everyone, we have decided to ship directly from suppliers around the world, cut out the middle man, and aquaculture many of our own products. What's more exciting than receiving amazing corals at your door step? Getting these corals at amazing prices!
