My experience at Aquatic Specialties has been excellent. I had been in the hobby over twenty years ago and decided to re-invest in July 2005. After looking at a few places, I came into A.S. and met Tim who took the time to explain all of my options. In the end, he made a recommendation, and unlike other places it was not the most expensive one. At that point, I knew that I wanted to do business with them. Since that day, I have purchased and stocked five aquariums all with their wise counsel, enthusiasm, and genuine care. Keith and Chip have put together an excellent staff with divergent talents. The commonality is that they are smart, honest, and genuinely interested in their customers. I love the fact that they know my tank. I am even more impressed that they know the tanks of the numerous other customers I see on a regular basis. Let's face it, we are all aquatic addicts. Thank goodness Aquatic Specialties is where we get our fix.

As a way to conserve the finite supply of live corals found in tropical waters, live coral propagation is the future of our reef-keeping hobby. We at Aquatic Specialties, Inc. have much experience in both hard and soft coral propagation, delving into this advanced aspect of the reef hobby in the late 1990's. Currently, in addition to the imported selection of corals from the South Pacific and Indonesia, we offer many species of propagated corals, most of which are produced in-house.
Our list of propagated corals include Large Polyped Stony Corals (LPS), Small Polyped Stony Coral (SPS), and many varieties of soft corals, including "mushroom" corals.

We are also in development of pairs of Pterapogon kauderni, the "Bangaii Cardinalfish", which is notorious for shipping poorly from its natural environment.
Lastly, we grow many species of macroalgaes, such as Caulerpa sp., Chaetomorpha sp., and Ulva sp. among others.
In addition to species that we produce, we also sell propagated species that we purchase from other reputable suppliers in the U.S.A.
