About
For nearly nine years, Reefkoi Corals LLC has been the saltwater anchor of the Colorado Springs reef scene, and owner Chris is behind the counter almost every day, often with his son working alongside him. This is a coral-forward aquarium store where the stock rotates constantly — racks of frags cycle through at a range of price points alongside larger showpiece colonies, and regulars sign up for alerts when fresh shipments arrive. If you are hunting for corals and saltwater fish for sale in Colorado Springs, CO, reviewers repeatedly call this the best coral selection in the Springs.
The livestock runs deep for a local shop: healthy reef fish, vibrant coral frags and full colonies, plus crustaceans and other invertebrates, with RODI and pre-mixed saltwater kept in the back for water-change day. The store is laid out to make sense — a display tank up front, then dry goods and reefkeeping supplies, the coral racks, the fish tanks, and an invert section — and customers consistently describe the tanks as clean enough to give them something to aspire to at home. Pricing comes up again and again as genuinely fair, which matters in a hobby where costs climb fast.
What truly sets Reefkoi apart is the guidance. Chris and his team are patient with beginner questions and, by many accounts, will talk you out of a purchase if a coral or fish won't thrive in your tank — even when it costs them the sale. " Another recalled an urgent fix when Chris dug through his stockroom to find a replacement bulkhead no one else in town carried.
Visibly involved in the local reefkeeping community and owner-operated from day one, this is the Colorado Springs aquarium store you want in your corner — whether you are maintaining an established reef along the Front Range or carefully building your first.

Have never had a bad interaction and always spend way more time then planned good all around”
