    Honestly can not get over the change in my tank from discovering this website. Always packed perfectly and alan has been a great help with advice or any problems I encountered since ordering from Blackfish I must have ordered at least 30 corals off al and they have all been top quality no pests after dipping and extremely reasonably priced i wouldn’t buy corals anywhere else. If it’s not on the website he will do his best to get you what you are after. Customer service of al and Nadia is second to none cant recommend them enough

    Great store to buy real quality coral at the most competitive price online. Purchased my first coral from the shop and it arrives safely, really well packed. The coral is just as stunning as on the picture. Trust the shop and the picture posted online. Highly recommended

    I have bought corals and dry good from Blackfish on a few occasions now and it's easy to see why they're rated 5 stars! Competitively priced and the corals always come well packaged and in great condition. Never had an issue yet but I'm confident it would be sorted if I did. Don't buy mail order corals from anywhere else!

    I've used many online coral suppliers and Blackfish Marine is by far the best. The quality of the corals is unmatched as well as the prices. I've never had an issue with a delivery and the livestock is always well packaged and in good health. Al's WhatsApp group is the best way to get a first look at his 3 deliveries a week. Most of his stock doesn't make to the website or app because we all snap them up too quickly. It also nice to get advice and have a laugh with like minded people. If you are after a specific coral which isn't in stock, Blackfish will go the extra mile to find it for you and I've never been let down. He frequently asks if there is anything everyone wants before putting his orders in or the team hand picking. Simply the best corals at the best prices from a top bloke / company Get involved, you won't regret it

    Al (blackfish marine) often goes out of his way to make sure you're happy with the excellent corals that he sells. Having been to his shop many times his systems are always impeccable and I'm more than happy to stock the majority of my tank with his corals. Would highly recommend anyone who might be on the fence to order and see for yourself!

  • 5/5 Antony S. 1 year ago on Google
    Al believed the corals I'd purchased where not the colour they were when he got them. Knocked money off because of this. I've received the corals and they are exactly as I thought and saw on there website. Don't get genuine honesty like this normally in the marine/reef hobby. Top company and customer service highly recommend. Your next livestock purchase should be from Blackfish Marine

    Another great day out to Black Fish Marine and another fantastic selection of coral brought with the sound advice of Alan, cheers fella, see you in a couple of weeks! YOU - get yourself down there, or order on line, no risk, low low prices for high end stock, a very reasonable guy, selling at exceptionally reasonable prices. Cheers EC.

    Really amazing corals at reasonable prices. Al is a lovely bloke who always goes the extra mile for his customers. His hands are also an average size. (Couldn’t resist)

    I’ve had multiple excellent experiences buying corals from Blackfish Marine, always packaged well, corals in great health and prices which often fall short of more market standards. Although a full range of corals are stocked, LPS in general are a specialty and would recommend checking here over any where else first of all! As a side note, I recommend reaching out to the shop and asking about their WhatsApp group. It’s an awesome little community formed with hobbyists all across the UK, everyone shares knowledge and helps each other out in a friendly manner. You also have the added benefit of sneak peaks/first orders against corals about to go on the website!

    Had my first delivery today from blackfish marine, ordered 10 bumblebee snails. What can I say if snails are packed this good I can only imagine how Corals etc are packed. Poly boxed, bubble wrapped, wrapped in foil wrap, heat pack and snails in a plastic tub with loads of water and carbon in water too. Highly impressed. Great quality bumblebee snails too. Thanks Blackfish marine *****

  • 5/5 Darren H. 7 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Colin M. 1 year ago on Google
    First class after sales, one of the Corals ordered was not in good condition , I contacted Alan and he sent replacement in the next posting available.

  • 5/5 Shad D. 1 year ago on Google
    Top quality corals from a very passionate, genuine seller. Customer service unmatched and an incredible selection of corals available. Thanks again!

  • 5/5 Damiantos D. 1 year ago on Google
    Corals are always fantastic, the pictures don't do them justice get into his WhatsApp group there are over 200 members from the hobby its fantastic.

  • 5/5 Duncan H. 2 years ago on Google
    I bought a Trachyphyllia online from this shop, organised a delivery day and it arrived as planned. The coral was suspended in a plastic tub full of water, wrapped in a reflective blanket, with a heat pack all in a poly box. To say I'm pleased is an understatement!!! I have lost count how many times I've bought corals and while they are nice the photos don't quite represent the real thing (they blame lighting...) Well this time I am amazed how much better it looked than the photos and they where good. I will be buying again, and if you see something you like, don't hesitate. You are not going to be disappointed.

  • 5/5 Frank D. 1 year ago on Google
    Best place to buy your corals in the UK. Excellent quality and the customer service is by far the best. Prices are nice and low so you can buy even more corals. This is the only place I now buy my corals. Thank you to blackfishmarine for being the best 😁

  • 5/5 ewan c. 1 year ago on Google
    Where to start……. Outstanding, finally a store that doesn’t take the p*ss, this guy knows his stuff and the hobby inside out. The stock is very well selected and maintained. In 1 visit I have transformed my tank at a very reasonable price. Returning in a couple of weeks to bag some more high end coral at a discount price. Worth a visit or a call, it’s not a flashy retail outfit served by a 16 year old who knows the world, it’s a guy, a building and coral trays… what more do you need? I brought a frag a few weeks ago to try out, it arrived in the post the next day and was massive, not a complaint, just surprised after been ripped off by other outlets and ebayers over the years. Cheers EC.

    Alan's corals are incredible, colours and health are the best on the market. His prices won't be beaten. Alan himself is a genuine kind hearted, honest person who will help with everything he can. Over all it is an amazing coral shop that I would honestly go as far as to say it's the best in the country and will struggle to be beaten. Thank you Alan for the service you provide and continued support.
