It’s always great dealing with the Eastern Marine Team. Every time I have bought coral from them I get a little surprise hitch hiker or two that’s beneficial to my marine tank.

“Really impressed”
“Really impressed with this latest livestock order for Coral Lounge. Getting anything down to Stewart Island isn’t exactly straightforward, so I appreciate the extra care that went into this shipment. The fish arrived in excellent condition — active, eating, and clearly well looked after. The corals were just as good, with great colour and polyp extension almost straight away. Communication throughout was fast, friendly, and clear, which makes a huge difference when you’re coordinating delivery to the island. Big thanks for the effort and the quality. Will definitely be ordering again.”
