About Us
Who We are:
The Coral Garden combines over 10 years of working in retail aquatics and 7 years of reef keeping experience, to provide you with high quality cultured corals. We aim to provide corals which have zero impact on reef environments and to conserve what is already threatened. Cultured corals also have a much higher survival rate when acclimatising to aquaria and often grow faster. As a company that has a strong interest in conservation and the environment, we are always looking to new ways to reduce our carbon footprint and recycle where possible as well as finding ways to work actively in overseas reef conservation and mariculture projects.
The Coral Garden began in 2012 in order to provide marine enthusiasts with a reliable and creditable source of healthy Marine corals and aquarium additives. We farm stunning coral from all over the world. Once the coral is big enough, we take very small cuttings and grow them out for a lengthy period of time to produce high quality frags for the consumer. We then let the mother colony rest and grow back out over a period of time, before starting this process again. Each frag is carefully cared for and looked after in our system and nurtured until it is ready to be purchased. We farm both SPS and LPS corals to a high standard, constantly looking for new species of both to add to our system. We are constantly working to provide the best possible conditions for our corals, so that they are always in the prime of their health.
