Coral reefs are cheaper than concrete to protect coastal cities! Better yet: "...coral reefs dissipate up to 97% of the energy that waves would otherwise deliver to a shoreline."

Hello again,
We are back! Despite our desire to open our door for you every month, we have been very busy on some large installations and have not had the time for an Open Shop Event. But, with the beautiful weather and Memorial Day Weekend here we decided there is no time like the present.

So, we would like to invite you all to come and pick from our fully stocked 1,600 gallon aquaculture facility. As you know we normally are closed to the public, but this May 27 will be our next open shop event.

As it gets a little crowded we will be employing the first come first serve number system to limit the number of people in the shop at any given time. We know it can be a drag to wait so we will be having a small BBQ in the yard with hot dogs and sodas for you while you wait.

There will be some items with Deep Memorial Day Weekend Discounts and there are deals to be had with multiple item purchases. The prices are too good to post though, so you will have to come by and see for yourself.

Check us out online to get an idea of just a fraction of the corals that will be available. Don't miss out on your chance to hand pick from our system. With our schedule the way it is we don't know when we will be able to host another event.

We will be open to the public from 12:00PM - 5:00PM this Sunday (May 27th)

Located at: 4599 Alum Rock Ave. San Jose, CA 95127
