What's New
A new shipment of Tonga Live rock is in stock. Tonga Ridge is our most popular Live Rock. The colors found on Tonga can range from orange to pink to green and of course that beautiful purple. The shape of this rock is usually branchy although there are a variety of shapes available. We also receive Tonga Shelf Live Rock and Tonga Branch Live Rock. The shelf rock is completely flat tabletop slabs. The branch rock is solid pieces of old coral branches. Tonga rock is typically covered with an abundance of life.
We have fragged up another one of the Acans and even the Whiskers coral. Those of you who have been on our frag list should have been contacted but we have plenty of Red Aussie Acan and two types of Rainbow Aussie Acan frags if anyone else is interested. The ones we fragged are just beautiful and doing so well. Make sure to get in quick to get first pick of these rare and beautiful corals!
We had a couple tank breakdowns this week, including a swap sump on our 150-gallon Reef Display. One of the tanks was overgrown with beautiful Feather Anthelia (aka Waving Hand Polyp) which is the same as the ever-popular coral that is in our 75-gallon Display. We have plenty of pieces available in all sizes. Along with the Anthelia coral, there are a few pieces of some amazing Bluish-Purple Mushrooms! They are just amazing in color and the picture does not do it justice! We even have a rock which is fully covered with beautiful Green Ricordea!
Along with a few other corals from the tank breakdowns, we have a Snowflake Eel, One-Spot Foxface, Flame Hawkfish, Bangaii Cardinals, Hippo Tangs, lots more Blue Globe Urchins, Feather Dusters, Fighting Conchs, Sand Sifting Starfish, Mithrax Crabs (red and green!), Peppermint Shrimp and so many more!
Since we swapped out the sump and some other equipment on our 150-gallon Reef Display, we are selling some of the used items. Among the items are a Euro Reef Skimmer (needs pump) rated for a 200-gallon system, a Euro Reef Sump, a Red Sea Wavemaster Pro, and a few Media Reactors. Items are first-come-first-serve, we cannot hold so make sure to get in ASAP!
