Where is the best place to get coral?

I've tried corals.com, tidalgardens.com, and queencitycoral.com, all of the coral I've received has been amazing and is thriving and the customer service from all places has been great. I've also ordered from Dr. Quarantine Fish and biota and they are great as well. What other places are good to window shop are good?

I would say top shelf bc their consistent and coral is always healthy but gotten extremely expensive. Reefnbid is a go to at times since if you win an auction it’s a fraction of retail cost but then again you have to “win”
 
Battlecorals.com if your looking for sticks
 
Well, Tidal Gardens and more recently Queen City Corals would have been my suggestions 🙂

I've never ordered from Corals.com, but they are an R2R sponsor and offering $1000 gift cards as a raffle prize in the R2R Birthday Bash this year. I've got a few raffle tickets on those Corals.com gift cards:

TSA is officially off my Christmas card list because they, like SBB, use software that steals your email address and adds you to their mailing list just for visiting their site 😡

Truth be told, both TSA and SBB are great places to buy coral, by reputation here on R2R, I'm just stubborn about privacy issues 🤪

World Wide Corals would be another top choice. BattleCorals too, the owner is a solid guy.

I'd also suggest checking the Marketplace here on R2R, a lot of members have some great stuff at really good prices 🙂
 
I live in Charlotte so Queen City corals is nearby. They do have good stuff, just wish they had a bigger variety of acros. But experience has been good
