They look nothing like that. Very impressive selection.

Coral Island - the shop owner is really nice, its a bit smaller than reef raft and doesnt have the big $$ corals but still fun to visit.

Next is Sexy Corals, this shop always has nice corals posted online, the shop itself though never seems to be really well maintained... but again a nice shop owner.

I had a chance to stop by the Aquatica shop while down in San Diego and was pleasantly surprised. The shop is super-clean, the coral is all really healthy and there was a large variety of coral- the sps selection was very good! Prices ranged from 10$ up to 300$ depending on size and type. Dave the owner was really nice and walked me through the equipment they are using and the types of coral they are stocking-
IShop is lit by LED's and I took these pics w/ the camera on my phone. They make their own water w/ a 1400gpd RO/DI system, all setups are simple, bio pellets, skimmer and UV so the tanks were super clean- I didnt see any pests or bad algae. They also quarantine all of their fish before allowing them to be sold http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h1...224_162644.jpg http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h1...224_162653.jpg http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h1...224_162703.jpg http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h1...224_162710.jpg http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h1...224_162719.jpg http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h1...224_162758.jpg |
