Corals & Fish

Bring the Ocean Home (Alpharetta • Atlanta)

Infinite marine life. Polyps pulse, wrasses flash, and the rockwork comes alive. At Pure Reef, livestock isn’t an add-to-cart—it’s living art. We focus on healthy, responsibly sourced corals and fish, with guidance that matches your tank, your time, and your goals.

Why Pure Reef Livestock

Aquaculture first

Captive-grown corals and captive-bred fish, whenever possible—for hardier, reef-safe success.

Quarantine & care

Smart acclimation and stability advice so that what you bring home thrives.

Real guidance

Stocking plans from hobbyists who keep tanks, not scripts.

Coral Collections (Pick Your Style)

Soft Corals — Motion & Glow (Beginner-Friendly)

Wavy leathers, zoas that sparkle, mushrooms that spread like a living carpet. Softies bring constant movement and forgiving care—perfect for first reefs and tanks you want to relax with.

Great in: 20–40 gal “starter” and community reefs.

LPS Corals — Sculpted Color (Intermediate)

Hammers, torches, and frogspawn—tentacles sway under gentle flow, and colors pop under blues. LPS are the crowd-pleasers that make guests stop and stare.

Great in: 40–120 gal mixed reefs.

SPS Corals — Showpiece Architecture (Advanced)

Branching acros, encrusting montis, plating colonies—SPS deliver that high-end reef look with dialed-in stability. We’ll help you hit the numbers and keep them steady.

Great in: established systems with strong light/flow.

NPS & Uniques — After-Dark Drama (Experienced)

Sun corals, gorgonians, and specialty pieces for keepers who love a challenge and the reward that follows.

Great in: all tanks with adequate lighting, flow, and water parameters.

Aquacultured Frags — Grow Your Own Reef

Start small, watch it flourish. Our frag racks feature hardy aquacultured pieces that color up beautifully and help keep wild reefs wild.

Great in: all tanks with adequate lighting, flow, and water parameters.

Care Note: Not sure where to start? Bring photos of your tank and we’ll map a simple stocking plan you can follow.

Fish Families (Personality for Every Reef)

Captive-Bred Classics (Easy, Peaceful)

Clownfish, dottybacks, and cardinals—captive-bred favorites with great odds for beginners.

Community All-Stars (Reef-Safe Mixers)

Gobies & blennies for character, firefish for grace, chromis for schooling—peaceful choices that play well together.

Flash & Finesse (Wrasses & Fairy Showpieces)

Color on fins that never quit. We’ll match species to your lid, sandbed, and flow so they settle in and shine.

Tang Territory (Room to Roam)

Utility meets showpiece. We’ll size tangs correctly, plan compatibility, and keep nori on the menu.

Utility Crew (Reef Helpers)

Cleaner shrimp, snails, hermits, micro-stars—small workers that keep the stage spotless.

Stocking Tip: Add in stages. We’ll pace additions, suggest quarantines, and avoid conflicts before they happen.

Marine Fish

We offer an extensive array of saltwater fish species, each selected for their beauty, compatibility, and adaptability to home aquariums. Our knowledgeable staff can assist in choosing species that suit your tank’s environment and your experience level, ensuring a harmonious and thriving community.

Live Corals

Our live coral selection encompasses a variety of species, from hardy soft corals suitable for beginners to more delicate hard corals for advanced hobbyists. Each coral is carefully acclimated to thrive in home aquariums, adding color, diversity, and dynamic biological activity to your reef setup.
