The Alternative Reef does not sell retail. We will not compete with our vendors and distributors for retail sales. We feel it is wrong to ask a business to sell for us, and then compete or undercut them for a sale. This creates a conflict of interest and can lead to soured relationships. We value our vendors and distributors and thank you for supporting them.
If you are a commercial store or licensed coral farm and have an interest in selling or using our products you can contact our distributors or us at info@thealternativereef.com. We will need a copy of your sellers or use permit and proof that you are a commercial entity. A website, copy of a phone book ad or even a photo of your retail store front for example. Once you establish an account with one of our distributors orders generally ship out within 24 to 48 hours. The Alternative Reef takes pride in quick order turnaround and keeps a large inventory on hand. Back orders are rare and usually only on special order items. Most of our products are made by hand and take a lot of time and resources. Before your order is processed you will be made aware if any delays will occur.
