The coral crib is awesome. Luke and Braden are extremely helpful and answer all my questions without hesitation. Prices are very reasonable and fish are healthy. If you dare try a saltwater tank, I highly recommend shopping here. Lukes setup in store makes me wish I had a bigger tank. I absolutely love the coral crib.

Great customer service! Very knowledgeable. We drive from Decatur and will continue to do so.

I could hang out here all day! Awesome store that always has something new for me and my family to check out! Luke and Brayden are great resources and I appreciate all the assistance they have given us! So, if your looking for healthy marine fish (FYI they will quarantine for you), inverts, corals, supplies, or just need a place to relieve some stress then go check out the Coral Crib!

Got to see beautiful coral and make friends with the fish! I cant wait to go again and see more.

Quality reef store that is well thoughtout and has a very clean look. Their display tank is absolutely amazing, these guy know their stuff. My girlfriend loved going there and she doesnt really like going to reef store. We will be back as much as we can.

My 75G tank would not be what it is, if it wasn’t for these guys. They’ve helped me from as little as giving tips, to helping me pick out my very first saltwater fish. They are always super helpful and friendly. Always happy to greet me when I come in every day of the week lol.

My kids and I have always discussed bringing home fish for them, as a new “pet”. 6 months ago, we started doing research and decided we were going to run a saltwater tank. We went to Petco and were quickly disappointed. After more research, I realized that keeping fish, is a science in itself..especially saltwater. There was quite a bit more to it than I originally thought but the challenge to learn was also motivating. I started to look for places locally other than Petco, to help get a better understanding of how to do it right and learn every ounce of information I could, to be successful from the beginning.I came across a link to “The Coral Crib”, located here in Bloomington, IL. I never knew there was a place in town!! We went and checked it out and while looking around, I was asking some very basic, rookie questions to one of the employees and not ONCE did he cast judgement on my ignorance to starting up a new tank. He was the utmost professional the entire time (THANK YOU BRAYDEN). As I continued asking questions, a customer chimed into the conversation and also helped answer some of my questions. You could tell the passion he had for the hobby, as he was also knowledgeable and eager to help out anyway he could. At this point, I was sold! These guys were extremely helpful, courteous, not pushy to buy anything and I knew I had come to the right place.As I picked out a few items to get my first tank cycled, another employee arrived and I dragged him into our conversation to pick his brain. Again, he was awesome with answering basic questions and helping me get going (THANK YOU LUKE). Come to find out later on, these 2 employees run the business and I cannot speak highly enough about them. If you want saltwater fish or have any questions on getting started, GO TO THE CORAL CRIB! They have a clean, captivating store with a great selection of fish, invertebrates, anemones, corals, tanks and everything you need to update or even get started with your first setup. My kids and I go there weekly now to look at the newest fish in stock and socialize with awesome ownership, who really have a passion for this hobby. I could not be any happier to support this local business and I hope them all nothing but the best as they continue to grow this business.

The staff is really knowledgeable and friendly. The moment I walked into the door I was greeted with a smile. This store has the best selection of Salt Water fish in the area. No competition. Hands down. All the fish were happy and healthy. The tanks on display were absolutely beautiful. The staff even accommodated my odd request to purchase some spare water hose that they had on hand. When it comes to customer service, Saltwater Obsessions does a great job. :)
