Lol. Ya he dangles the carrot, we harass the LFS to get prices to find out they were sold before the posted pics go up....... Then the prices HI CARUMBA. awesome corals but so many roadblocks.

It's simple guys, we see the pics and we ask our LFS to order from Reef Wholesale. It is frustrating though trying to track pieces down, and by the time they figure out where it went it has been sold.

Cool

I usually just PM my LFS with the pic of the coral I'm interested in. If it hasn't already gone to another store it usually arrives with the LFS' next RW order in a bag with my name on it :-D

It can be challenging tho cuz many times the piece will have already went to another store so you gotta act quick.

RW had it's beginnings in retail with Ottawa Inverts. We made the move to wholesale only and have quite an extensive dealer network across Canada.

We do only sell to our retailers, so the best way is to order WYSIWYG pieces or species specific, is to;
PM your LFS with the pic of the coral you are interested in as well as an email to sales@reefwholesale.com with the name of your local LFS and the photo. If the piece is still available RW will get in contact with your local LFS about having it added to their next order.

Thanks Trina I would appreciate that. If you could also let Stu know that I am interested in that piece and get him to give me a quote on it that would be great.
