Coral Dynamics mission is to relieve stress on the worlds troubled coral reefs. By selling captive raised corals, we are able to do our part, to ensure hobbyists and others are able to enjoy reef aquariums in their homes, lobbies and offices for generations to come.

Our captive raised corals are far superior to those retrieved from wild reefs. The coral reef aquarium is an ever changing environment in which many wild caught corals can not easily adapt. A majority of the corals at Coral Dynamics are 5th-6th generation captive raised. Our corals are used to the aquarium environment and if cared for properly will flourish in your aquarium. We offer a guarantee on all of our products.

Hello and welcome to Coral Dynamics, Inc.

First, let me say "Thank You!" for visiting this site and making it known you support captive propagation of Marine Ornamental Species.  It's a pleasure  to know that our efforts to help take some, although small, pressure off the over fished and over collected natural reefs of this planet are appreciated by others.

I have been keeping saltwater aquaria for over 10 years, and started in this hobby when it seemed impossible to keep alive many of the creatures we take for granted today; much less think about breeding and growing them in captivity.  I still own the very first tank I ever purchased for saltwater use.  Though it has undergone many different uses and a few silicon replacements it is still in use today as a Bangaii Cardinal breeding tank and Zoanthid Growout system.

I think the main reasons I am running this site are my love for the fascinating creatures that live beneath the surface of our vast oceans, along with my passion for keeping them where they belong, undisturbed and unharmed.  My desire to propagate these species in a captive, closed environment serves to take some of that pressure off of an already fragile ecosystem.  The more species we can get to adapt and thrive in our little glass boxes means for once mankind is not out to simply use and destroy the very life-giving organism that helped create and sustain his very existence.   Ok, enough of the soap-box speeches...

I hope you enjoy your visit to Coral Dynamics, Inc and I also hope you enjoy your purchases of our top quality captive bred / propagated livestock.

Thank you for visiting,

Here at Coral Dynamics, one of our goals is to become proficient at breeding Clownfish, Bangaii Cardinals, and Seahorses..

Still today the majority of the Marine Ornamental Fish available in the Local Fish Stores (LFS) are caught in the wild and shipped thousands of miles to wholesalers who then sell to distributors filling orders for your LFS. By the time you get to see the fish, they are often diseased from stress or less than optimal conditions during their forced travels. We want to help put a stop to removing happy healthy specimens from their familiar surroundings and subjecting them to harsh and unfavorable treatment up until the time they arrive at their new home, your aquarium.

Captive Bred clownfish serve to help stop the depletion of one of the most sensitive eco-systems on the planet. These little guys were bred for one purpose, to make you happy and help save the reef systems around the world by providing you with a quality, happy and healthy specimen for your aquarium. These clownfish have never known the vast oceans, they were born in a glass box, and know nothing other than this is their home. Since they are conditioned
to be around people, they acclimate better to their surroundings, they are not as likely to be spooked by human contact, and they know you will take care of them!
 

Don't purchase fish caught using cyanide or other poisons.

Don't purchase coral pieces or "live rock" for your tank unless there is proof that they were cultured.

Tell your local aquarium or pet shop to stock only products that do not destroy coral reefs.

When purchasing marine animals, please investigate the species you are buying to ensure you can provide the correct environment. Consider what other species of animals you already have in your reef tank and check if this new addition is compatible. Also consider if the animal needs feeding and whether you can provide the correct quality and quantity of this food. Most importantly, consider the species natural living habits and try to replicate them.
