About Empire Corals

I'm Zac, and I run Empire Corals. What started as a reef-keeping hobby is now the job that supports my family: my wife, who has been my sweetheart since high school, and our three daughters. Everything I do here is for them, so they can have a better life than I had.

That's why every order matters to me. I've kept reef tanks since 2014. I run Empire Corals myself out of Wonder Lake, Illinois. I pick the livestock, pack every box and answer every message.

What I offer

• Aquacultured coral frags and live foods: copepods and phytoplankton
• Saltwater and freshwater fish, invertebrates, plants and reef supplies
• Local aquarium maintenance, plus RO/DI installation and service

How I do business

• Live arrival guarantee on every livestock order
• Honest descriptions and fair prices
• Real answers from someone who keeps reefs himself
