Algae Barn
We think the best way to inspire people to protect our oceans is to help them observe, understand and learn from the magnificent creatures that inhabit them. That’s why at Algaebarn we produce premium aquacultured marine organisms that are sustainable and eco-friendly.
By providing quality live foods backed by scientific research, we aspire to improve the general health and longevity of ornamental fish. One day we hope to see all marine aquariums filled entirely with aquacultured organisms, thus reducing our hobby’s impact on natural marine environments. The best way to make that vision a reality is to start with the building blocks of all marine ecosystems; Zooplankton and Phytoplankton.
“Inspiring Passion Amongst Aquarists with a Vision for a Sustainable Future”
AlgaeBarn has partnered with multiple charities, foundations, and research institutions with goals to educate, protect and restore our oceans. As biologists, engineers, businessmen, and hobbyists ourselves, we are committed in educating the aquarium community to encourage the proper care of all marine life and to protect our precious blue planet.
In addition to caring for marine life, we promise to always treat people right by providing exceptional customer service and standing behind our products.

CaribSea
For me CaribSea began the first moment I hit the water over a coral reef; an alien landscape with constant movement and intense sunlight splashed like paint over electric colors. It was pure joy exploding through my eyes and I will never forget it. A marine aquarium was the next obvious step. That was many years ago but I still get that feeling when I encounter a particularly spectacular reef aquarium.
In reality, CaribSea began in 1950’s Cuba where Dick Greenfield a Navy fighter pilot and early adopter of SCUBA gear, and his wife Nancy were stationed. Both were California natives with a taste for adventure and diving the fabulous reefs of the south coast of Cuba was a natural. Later, after a decade living in Europe it was time to come home but to where? In Europe, Dick was intrigued with the possibilities of a brand new material – fiberglass. Florida was the epicenter of the emerging fiberglass boat industry and just happened to be the best diving in the continental U.S. South Florida became home and the Florida Keys an every weekend destination. The home aquariums multiplied but a high quality substrate was always a problem and, as it turned out, a problem for everyone else too. With so many potential materials available and the proximity of a world renowned marine institute and laboratory just down the street (the University of Miami’s Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science), a product was born.
Now CaribSea Inc. is in the hands of a second generation of aquarists, scientifically trained and with decades of experience. Since 1972 CaribSea has remained on the leading edge of closed system development by matching substrate mineralogy and hardscapes to the universe of microbiology. When I see a living coral reef thriving in someone’s living room and reflect on the primitive systems of our past, I have the satisfaction of knowing CaribSea played its part in the revolution. CaribSea is constantly changing and evolving but what remains the same is the commitment to producing the most advanced and very best quality products in our field.

Eye Candy Coral
Eye Candy Coral was founded in 2010 primarily selling aqua-cultured coral at trade shows across the United States. An exciting part of this venture was the opportunity to purchase rare and exotic aqua-cultured corals from other hobbyists/vendors from all over of the country. After years of growing our collection of high end frags, that brings us to where we are today. Due to the demand of our aqua-cultured frags at trade shows, we are now offering our high end corals online, in addition to our year-round trade shows. We hope that you enjoy the collection of coral that we’ve worked so hard to grow and rest assured all corals purchased have been cared for with the utmost attention to detail. We hope you love them as much as we do. See you at the next show….

Saltwater Aquarium.com
My story is in April 2011, I wanted to buy an Ecotech Marine MP40 for my first saltwater aquarium. It was an Oceanic 42 Hexagon that I still have today. The pump was like $400 and that was WAY WAY over my budget. I thought my better half would have killed me if I spent that much on a pump to just move water. So I called up Ecotech an opened a wholesale account. Back then not very many people were selling MP40’s and there were a lot less restrictions. They were nice enough to give me a shot, so I bought 3 pumps. I put one on my tank and dropped the other 2 on eBay to make a quick buck. I had sold golf clubs and some other collectibles on eBay so I knew that pretty well. Little did I know what would happen next would change my life forever.
I went to work the next morning as normal. 9-5 in a 6’ by 6’ cubicle. I spent 15 years of my life in that cubicle in the end. It was a great job but I was inside all day on my butt. Growing up a dairy farmers son, I didn't know what to expect. That morning I got a popup/email from eBay, “Ship your Products Now!” and I was like WTF? Then I remembered, the pumps. So I rushed home at lunch packed them up on my lunch break and shipped them out.
Later that day I was sitting in that cube thinking, man that was easy so I bought 6x more pumps from Ecotech. Long story short, they sold over a weekend and I was hooked, line and sinker. Not only was I selling stuff I loved, it was fun and I was making a few bucks and I had a REALLY COOL FISH TANK at home! Kinda the point. From there I found the domain name SaltwaterAquarium.com up for auction and won the bid. Having a degree in computer science and being a computer gaming dork all my life, World of Warcraft Ret Paladins FTW, I found my new game and here we are.
10 years and ten's of millions in sales later I’m doing what I love, helping customers have COOL fish tanks, having fun and providing our customers a great service where they can get their aquarium supplies FAST, FREE and from a trusted source where they know if they have an problem we have their back.
Thank you for considering Saltwater for all of your Aquarium needs!

Tidal Gardens
Tidal Gardens is a coral reef aquaculture business located in Copley, OH. Through propagation, we supply high quality aquacultured hard corals, soft corals, mushrooms, polyps, zoanthids, and gorgonians to reef aquarists with little to no impact on the natural reefs.
Reef aquarium keeping is a growing passion for many people. A reef tank allows us to view, in our own homes, a myriad of beautiful life forms that others can only dream of. Nowhere else on earth will you find such a diverse array of shapes and colors as you will on a coral reef. For many, a reef aquarium provides a window to an underwater world they may never see in person.
The goal of Tidal Gardens is to offer the highest quality corals to those seeking a piece of that world without destroying it. We hope to instill a deep appreciation for the natural reefs and help develop a self sustaining hobby that no longer requires the collection of fish and corals. We sell corals locally on an appointment basis as well as online through this website.
