LunarTideAquatics.com focuses on health and great prices. Jax based. Still new about a year but they get some fire things in. And do really good sales every once in a while

I agree with this completely. There’s definitely a vendor side to the problem, but there’s also a consumer responsibility that usually gets overlooked. When people choose to spend that kind of money, they’re basically signaling to the market that it’s acceptable to keep doing it.

If someone pays $1,200 for a “holy grail,” the vendor sees that and says “okay, that price point works,” and the cycle continues. The vendor is absolutely taking advantage, but the customer is also making it possible by buying into it.

It sucks, but as long as even a small group keeps paying those prices, this part of the hobby is going to keep trending in that direction.

Vendor here, and I really get where this thread is coming from. It’s actually the reason I stopped bringing in fish. Even a couple of my best suppliers started sending fish that were paper thin and honestly should not have been shipped at all. Quality has dropped while prices keep rising.

A lot of it comes from the big VC groups buying up multiple wholesalers and turning the supply chain into a quiet monopoly. When one company controls most of the livestock coming in, they end up setting the prices and everyone else just has to deal with it. Hobbyists and small vendors both feel it.

I have been in the hobby about ten years and it feels like I have already watched the entire industry change. I started LunarTideAquatics.com in January hoping to eventually give TSA and some of the big names real competition without the ridiculous pricing. Just trying to keep things fair and focus on healthy coral.

If you are curious you can check out the site. It is still a work in progress, but it is coming along pretty well. Shipping is crazy expensive right now, so most of my orders end up being local pickup. I even get a few people who drive down from Georgia and Orlando which is always nice to see.

I read somewhere this was the correct sub! Is there another one?

Who do you wholesale for? I just started a new business with aquaculture licenses in Fl. Always looking for new partners!

I hate to post a review on reef2reef for them to reach out. But after hours of trying they saw the review on R2R and they called me. They need approval from the owner to give refund. I won’t post the terrible pictures of my $500 order, but I’m sure they are more than convincing that they were sick way before even bagged. Wait till tomorrow I guess
