Why use THE KING OF CORAL?
While there are plenty of online coral vendors/retailers for our clients to choose from, there are several aspects about our business that we believe sets us apart from the competition:
Properly quarantined coral frags – All our coral stock is carefully quarantined for at least 28 days. Our corals are closely examined and very carefully screened on an ongoing basis to ensure that unwanted pests and parasites are not introduced to your systems. Our corals receive set procedures before entering and leaving our facility.
We proactively manage the health of our stock. We continually monitor water quality, maintain proper record keeping, and continuously produce top quality aqua cultured corals.
