Hello everyone, I’m new to the team and was wondering if you guys sell coral on here. If so could you guide me on how to purchase it. Or if there is any places you would recommend to buy coral. Thanks!

This forum is for selling coral, fish, and anything else that lives in our tanks.

Welcome to Reef2Reef!! Use the market place found on the site, there you can find many different people selling coral or find sponsors that have websites where you can buy coral from. Good luck with finding the coral that fits your tank the best!!!

So reef2reef doesnt sell coral directly but there are a lot of great options out there.

One of which is on the reef2reef marketplace where you can see if anyone local to you is selling coral or any dry goods.

If you are looking to purchase specific corals from online to get it shipped, you can look into WorldWideCorals, TopshelfAquatics, or Tidal Garden who are all well known aquaculture facilities and they also sponsor reef2reef

YMMV depending on vendor. I've been ripped off on here by 2500 club members sending "genetic samples" of SPS w/no heat pack in the cold, then blaming me for their deaths (see my bad review ). I've also purchased great stuff on here from hobbyists for half of retail. It has all averaged out in the end dollar wise IME.
I prefer to sell locally (tanks are overgrown w/sps) and not worry about the high cost of shipping and losses associated with dodgy shippers for about half of retail. I pick up stuff from big boy retailers from time to time too, depending on availability of merchandise. Two guys I'd reccommend that aren't "big boy" megastores that I've had good shipments from are Abe from CoralEuphoria and Keith AkA: Reefbum.
