It’s rare to see a saltwater only store around my area. Most of my lfs cater both salt and fresh. Idk if it’s just me, but when I go to a saltwater only store I get this “pro only” hobbyists vibes.
Miami, FL. here. Ive always dreamed of owning a store like this. Maybe one day… Been in the hobby for about 20 years now. Actually met my wife of 14 years, at a fish store!
I'm an Aussie living in Czech and I have heard amazing things about Fragbox - then this vid popped up so subscribed... so great to hear someone loves their job
I totally agree with you that if you really love what you doing, it never really feels like you're working at all. I admire people like you who's very passionate and dedicated to the things they wanted to do in life. I hope to visit your store someday. I just subscribed to your channel. I like your content.
Watching your videos for a while! You’re an honest legit guy and it’s important for hobbyist like us to support you and not buy off the Internet to save a dime !,,
I just got into the hobby and i have been binge watching your videos while on my way to vacation. I have seriously never felt so passionate about something in a while. I grew up always wanting a saltwater tank from about the age 10 i was always told we will get you one soon.... 8 years later i still hadnt had one and just bought one bc i was tired of always putting it off. While i maybe shouldnt have spent as much money as i should have atm i dont regret any of it and i have even got some of my friends involved. Now everytime i go to the LFS they always tag along and i cant wait to start getting fish and corals in my tank.
Just amazing there are no words to explain my emotions towards your business and if you ever have a problem o would literally drive from windsor to help you because its amazing what are you doing! I just got into this hobby and i am amazed of the beauty of everything! Cheers and much appreciation for your!
I am watching from Germany and are a big fan from the channel and your store, it really sounds like all of you are in it with your heart and it feels like big a family, recently started a onlineshop for Coralsfrags and 3D printed stuff hobby related, your videos inspire me : )
I want to run a store so bad, super small operation right now only 20gals of water and about 10 different corals, plenty of struggles running out of the garage dealing with summer heat. I guess I'll just keep plowing ahead, been at it for 3 years trying to build up and it's so slow going since I don't have much investment capital. Hoping to do something great someday.
Oregon here. I skipped freshwater and went straight to the good stuff. "Choose a job that you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life." -Confucius
Greatings from New Zealand i find your videos great to watch i am new at marine reefing my tank is about 7 months old and is going ok cheers went from fresh water.
I love the great content. Keep it coming. Wish we had a shop like yours where I live. Theres one. Always 70% empty tanks. No products on the shelves. Really depressing. Have to order everything. I can do that myself. Looks like you have a great store. Not sure I would ever leave if it was by my house. Lol.

Watching from Florida. Grew up in North York though. I am starting my SPS farm currently in my fish room and plan on having a facility in next few years.
Subscriber from Calgary here. I was in Ottawa all week and was hoping to make time to come and visit your store but just ran out of time. Hope to head that way again in the fall and will try to stop in. (Hopefully you guys can get out of the flu restrictions by that time too).
I have been in freshwater for a long time. Finally dove in and I’m setting up my nano saltwater tank right now. Would love to see a tour of the basement and see how the underbelly works. Great vid!
This is what I wanted to know! Thank you so much for being so open to us. Can you please tell us how to source for coral wholesalers. I just want a rough idea. 🙏
may you give me an advice to aclimate fishes the first days in my quarentine tanks, i buy once at mont from indonesia, and i want to avoid some of the fish lost due to the fist days in a tank
Hello I'm a new saltwater fish store owner in southern Illinois. I was wondering if you could give me some tips. I've only been in the hobby for one year but I'm very handy.
Hi i have a store in hungary! Started 3 years ago lot of work but enjoy seeing New and New corals I never seen befor! Do you inport from indo? Any good suplyer? Thanks István
Back seat you say fresh water well I just got 2 of my tanks turned in to salt water 40 gallons and 20 gallons can't wait till I get to be ok salt water reef keeper maybe I turn all my tanks to salt water one day 😀
I watch all of your videos now :-) Love what you're doing! Looking to start my own business in Duluth Minnesota and wondering how much roughly it costed to just start up the store? I know you're looking at $350,000 worth of merchandise there but how much just for original startup do you think
Uk , can you make a video on green hair algae how to defeat it and Wht actually we should look in parameters to balance it and to get rid in Natrual way ☺️
dont know if you have done on video on this or not, but im currently looking at buying a rodi unit and not sure whats the best bang for my buck for a nano tank (red sea 130d max) and im watching from Vancouver BC
I have been thinking of opening a store in next year or 2. I am in Missouri so no competition lol. Does your storefront make majority of your income or the online sales?
I have always said that those who share their successes will succeed..It sets off a chain reaction.

Yeah but that’s just routine if you go in and show interest most shops will become you best friend
I'm setting up a store and refer to your videos for guidance. Have been farming corals for decades, but just getting into the retail side.

How much money did you spend on the startup? Also, have you done a full video of your plumbing? Would love to see that in detail.
Thanks March for this very interesting video, starting up in your moms basement 😄👍

There are websites if you google coral wholesalers who only sell to stores/farms.

Mr.Diggs is so tired from putting in all that hard work
Uk , can you make a video on green hair algae how to defeat it and Wht actually we should look in parameters to balance it and to get rid in Natrual way ☺️
I’m from Florida
I'm in South Africa
dont know if you have done on video on this or not, but im currently looking at buying a rodi unit and not sure whats the best bang for my buck for a nano tank (red sea 130d max) and im watching from Vancouver BC
100% get aquatic life's RODI buddy. Definitely best bang for your buck and it is quite small, easy to hide under the sink.
@@Rivenbourn awesome, was thinking that one was probably the way to go, but all ways good to hear other people reviews
Hi im in florida getting ready to sign the lease to start building my store would like to know a couple things if you dont mind
You learned from reef raft?!?!?! Would love to hear more about that. Maybe a trip to his house for an interview???
Do you have an Apex system for under $700. With three probes?
I have been thinking of opening a store in next year or 2. I am in Missouri so no competition lol. Does your storefront make majority of your income or the online sales?
hi I'm planning to open a store from home! any info we can share I would appreciate
We’re in July bud. Unless this was recorded weeks ago.
“I’m an animal lover” next sentence “right mr DICKS” I’m weak asf🤣😭
In the states but I love the videos
Do you guys ship
New to the hobby. How do you know when your corals are getting enough light or too much light?
An indicator for soft corals like zoas they will stretch out towards the light if they dont get enough light..
I'm actually about to start up a shop. I could use some guidance. I have a lot of questions. Any chance we could Skype or something along those lines?
When we gonna see the most expensive nano tank
From Toronto! Will definitely be coming in once my 2nd dose side-effects wear down!
me i am in the uk
