Sean.G Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Hey everyone. I just got into reefing but I am having trouble finding a place to purchase corals from eventually. There is a Local store in the city I live in but their coral selection is really small. I know not many people are from Oregon but I hope some of them can give me suggestions. I live in Corvallis and would be willing to drive as far as Portland (1.5 hours North) or Eugene (hour South). So any suggestion? Sorry if this is the Wrong Sub-Fourm but I couldn't think of any better ones. Link to comment
onefang Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I am in Eugene, and we have Aqua Serene, Pet Time, and The Nautilus. These probably stack up for me as far as coral quality and selection as: 1. Aqua Serene 2. The Nautilus 3. Pet Time In Salem, you have The Premium Aquarium, which has a pretty nice selection of stuff - and would probably be the closest place for you. For Portland area, there is Critter Cabana in Wilsonville which I actually like quite a bit. Really nice coral, and big selection. Carry a bunch of tanks, and other reef gear you can't really get other places. In Portland Proper, you have Cuttlefish and Coral, Upscales, and probably a bunch of other places that I haven't yet been to. Also if you have any interest in freshwater, you'd better go check out the Wet Spot in Portland. Link to comment
Sean.G Posted April 17, 2015 Author Share Posted April 17, 2015 Thanks man this helped a lot, I will probably check out the one in Wilsonville and Salem this weekend. I do also have a freshwater tank but its taking a back seat for my salty tank, the local store here also has a pretty decent freshwater selection its just the saltwater that's lacking.

onefang Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 The Wet Spot has some pretty dang nice planted tanks. I have to avoid going there now that I am focusing on reef, or else I will start thinking about planted tanks again As far as Critter Cabana goes, make sure it's the Wilsonville location and not Newberg. I don't think Newberg has any marine section at all. Link to comment
