If you are looking for corals, check out Midwest Corals in Osceola Indiana. midwestcorals.com
It is a bit of a drive - probably a little less than an hour from Kzoo but well worth the trip.
They have the best selection, the best looking corals, & at the best prices I have found.

MV Pets in Portage

They quarantine their fish in the owners garage for 3 weeks before they bring them into the store. I think he runs a low level dose of copper too. Coral selection is on the low side of moderate.


Ecoreef in Zeeland has a relatively large selection of corals. I got redbugs from one of their corals a long time ago, so check the stock carefully. They got new management since then.

I'm not sure from your post whether you live in Kalamazoo and are willing to drive 100 miles, or you live 100 miles outside of Kalamazoo.

Where on this side of the state are you exactly. If you are in kzoo then Mother's Reef in Parchment is the best store in kzoo IMO.
