Divers Den SPS

[strittmatter]

Do you guys do anyhting to make sure there are no red bugs on your SPS? Just curious as i am thinking about buying some frags.

A strict 14-day quarantine and observation period is in place to protect hobbyists from the common marine parasites currently plaguing home-operated coral frag traders.

strittmatter,

This is a very good question and actually has been addressed in the past by our Director of Live Aquaria Kevin Kohen. You may wish to view the post here:

Wow that is awsome. Makes me want to buy some frags from you guys even more...So any coral sold from the Wisconsin facility would be treated like this correct? do you sell no divers den coral from the Wisconsin facility?

Strittmatter,

You are correct; all of the corals that are received at our Rhinelander facility will go through this strict procedure.

Along with Divers Den specimens our Aquaculture Coral & Marine Life Facility in Wisconsin also offers many different Aquacultured corals. We are pleased to offer Captive-Grown Corals (propagated using artificial lighting & synthetic seawater), along with our own line of Select Drs. Foster & Smith Captive-Grown Corals, grown in-house. We also offer an array of corals from ORA (Oceans, Reefs and Aquariums) and TCN (The Coral Nursery) along with numerous other suppliers.

We hope you find this information beneficial!
