CARE MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

Marine livestock is harvested all over the world under all kinds of conditions. Most companies today are little more than fullfillment services that rush the livestock from the point of capture to your home, even if the collection and handling methods were less than optimal.

The Marine Center is different. We quarantine all arriving marine livestock in a healthful environment for two full weeks and only ship animals we know are healthy. We lose some livestock this way, but better us than you. The Marine Center is unique in devoting this level of care. When you buy from us, you can be sure of receiving healthy marine livestock.

PERSONAL SERVICE

The Marine Center is here for you whenever you need us—with real people who are as passionate and knowledgeable about this stuff as you are, and whose only job is to ensure your satisfaction. We’re not an impersonal fulfillment house, nor a branch of a larger company. We’re real, and, though it may sound corny, we care. Contact us any time!

A COMMUNITY OF FISH FANS

Because we’ve been online longer than any other resource, and because we’re so careful about the products we deliver to you, The Marine Center has attracted a following that includes some of most sophisticated fish fanciers anywhere. Join our mailing list to be notified when your favorite fish or corals become available.
