Coral Ranch - Great Experience!
« on: August 21, 2010, 23:40:48 »
I've been working on my 90G with Rich at the Coral Ranch, and their livestock looks good and the prices are decent.  Really nice people.  I'll definitely be going back.

I visited Coral Ranch for the first time today as they had a great price on Peppermint Shrimp.  Funny I Googled the location and it showed up in the middle of a field so I called to check to see if I had the right address.  They said yes we are at the end of a long lane, look for the greenhouse.

Headed out and turned down the driveway looking for the greenhouse, but didn't see one.  It was hidden behind a barn and looked realllllly small. 

However I went in and the corals were absolutely frickin' crazy.   If you like pulsing Xenias you would be in heaven.  They even have a PVC viewer so that you can look at the corals up close. 

Kinda a surreal experience to see all that they had to offer in a little small greenhouse.  I will definitely be visiting them again.  Pretty cool place.

I tried to go there today. I drove to the field and down the path to a house? I saw the barns and a greenhouse. The greenhouse had a salt geeks sticker on the door, which was wide open. There was nothing inside the greenhouse. I did not see anyone around and peeked into the garage and barn but no sign of tanks? I guess I either went to the wrong place or they're out of business?
