Buying aquacultured corals

[aklee987]

Hi all. A while ago, I came across a thread where people had listed some websites for getting aquacultured corals from. I've since forgotten them. Was wondering if anyone knows any. The ones I know are:

1. Places that sell ORA corals
2. Pacific east aquaculture

Are there any others that I should look into? Anyone with personal experience?

Join your local reef club or connect with local reefers. Any successful reefer has excesses corals from pruning back growth. My nanos generate 2 or 3 frags/month and I have less than 30 gallons.

They're captive propagated/aquacultured and generally they're cheap. In addition there's no shipping, and you get to meet a lot of nice people who are also in the hobby .

Check out the buying and selling forum here, they are all aquacultured.

getting stuff from local people is nice too cause it's usually in the right type of system and there is almost no shipping stress
