Did anyone catch the ad in the Green Bay Press Gazette classified ads this weekend? The ad was in the pets section and advertised Wisconsin's greatest coral and invert selection. The phone number to call was 920-388-0342. I tried the number and got a very mushy voice message that I couldn't quite make out. Anybody know anything about this????

Just talk to him on the phone sounds like a great place with very big selection and good prices. He sounds like a very nice guy I'm going to check it out well worth the drive it sounds like.

The phone number is for "Coral Boy Farm" here in WI, who is in partnership with Custom Aquatic (in CA-and a RC sponsor).

Coral Boy Farm comes up with a location in Kewaunee on the AquaArt Aquarium website. Hope that helps.

Never heard of coral boy ...

Personally, I've always gone to Gooch's for the best stuff, but I know he's been busy + less going on recently.

Interested to hear about `coral boy farm' ... also what his red bug situation is.

A few WRS and MARS members run propagation set ups, I know of one in WRS with a heap of SPS and who is a very nice guy. I'd be sure to check those out too - as reefers give prices much better than stores IMO.

That's the guy he said he has a 1200 gal and some 400's and some 125's and a 75. He said prices are better than the site if you pick up the stuff. He also said he has the best and biggest selection in the state and after talking to him I believe him.

I was at his place today. He has a very large selection of corals. It was worth the trip. Very friendly.

I visited yesterday and was very impressed. Great assortment and good prices. Sorry to the zoo and ric fanatics as he had litle to offer, but great SPS, LPS and softies. The owner is unfamiliar with RC and this new club, but he was very interested in both. He was agreeable to my idea of possibly hosting a meeting in a few months. Very agreeable after I mentioned how many were likely to come to the meeting. Give him a call and check him out
