Hey Everyone!

I am looking to find some people (shop owners) that have access to cites and willing to ship coral to Canada. This search is proving harder than expected which i really dont understand why, quite a few Canadian shops are willing to pull cites and export to the states or other countries but no one is will to ship to Canada....why? Am i missing something?? any help would be greatly appreciated!

I think reef raft Canada gets shipments in.

I want coral that is already in the states. i can get cities for wild coral.

I went through this when I opened my basement coral store a few years back. It basically comes down to stores 'exporting' goods is not in their business model. It's perceived as more time and work with very little monetary reward.

There are several distributors in California who will export to Canada. Quality Marine, for example. The best I could get the stores to do is to ship to a UPS facility near the border and I would have had to go get it (with the proper paperwork, of course). I didn't actually end up doing that though.

Are you looking for specific corals, or just a better selection?
