I updated the site with a handful of corals, there are plenty more to come up! You'll just have to wait for me to get back to work on Sunday.

These are some of the new one, happy coral hunting!

Wow the store is really packed with some nice corals!

I just left the store, and I have to say I was pretty disappointed. I see no longer are prices posted on the tanks. I asked the employee how do we know the coral prices, and was told you have to ask. So I asked and they didn't know the prices, but said they could make a call.. Well sorry, that doesn't work for me.

So say they call and I get a price on that coral,,, then5 minutes later at another tank I see something I'm interested in.. Am I supposed to wait until another call is made?

Sorry guys I went in with a couple of hun in my pocket to spend. This number system you have IE f52, G5H may work for your online store but unless you make the prices available either on the tank or at least hang up a list with coral numbers and their prices I won't be back.

I also hate it too when LFS don't post prices. Some of the LFS here have a dedicated tank say everything in this tank worth $79, and another $50 at least then you know even next time you walk in you will know how much that coral you are looking for will cost instead of playing the guessing game.

Shelley, this whole thing is new to us and we are still working things out. We will have physical price lists posted in store, but I think you misunderstood about calling...we have a pricing page on our website that we access with our smart phones. Just enter the row the coral is in, ie 4G and it pulls up the photos and prices. No calling necessary. I know this won't work for everyone, so we will have a physical list too.

I appreciate the feedback, but please understand that we have been working very hard to get this going and it takes a bit of trial and error.
