What reefers are saying

Just got my first frags from Lazy's today and the size of the frags were bigger than I expected and super healthy - Everything opened up almost immediately. Will be buying from them again.

Lazy’s Coral House is the definition of QUALITY corals! Wow! From the top-notch customer service to the absolutely beautiful, healthy corals, Lazy’s Coral House really goes above and beyond. I sent Brian a text and received a response the same day, which says a lot about how much they care about their customers. The corals are even more beautiful in person super healthy, clean frags that are already exploding with growth! Lazy’s really sets you up for success with their frags. Shipping was also excellent. Everything was packaged with so much care, and the corals arrived in great shape. A+ Lazy’s Coral House is officially my go to coral shop! I couldn’t be happier with my experience and will definitely be ordering again. Thank you so much =)

The best packed. The best personal service. Call them. They answer! Try that at a big box operation. Pest free. Affordable. And, maybe, most important…as a whole, the best frags that I have ever purchased online. Full, overgrown coral that covers the entire plug!! Start looking. Buy now. Btw… I don’t ever write reviews…

Ordered a birdsnest ,red goniopora, trumpet coral and zoas " overloaded plugs" i will say that zoa plugs we're overloaded and every was open with in twenty minutes of getting put in my aquarium. Very pleased with the quality and health of the animals I recieved. And a nice touch with the hand written ty on top of the box. Will definitely be shopping again

I couldn't be happier with my first order from Lazy's Coral House. I ordered three zoanthid frags: White Zombies (advertised 3 polyps) Blue Kiss / Miami Vice (advertised 3 polyps) LCH Chrysanthemums (advertised 4 polyps) Every frag arrived extremely well packaged. The bags were secure, the corals stayed submerged, and everything arrived healthy with no loose polyps or damaged tissue. The biggest surprise was how generous they were with the polyp counts: White Zombies: Advertised 3 polyps, received 10 healthy polyps plus an extra bonus zoa on the frag. LCH Chrysanthemums: Advertised 4 polyps, received 11 healthy polyps. Blue Kiss / Miami Vice: Received the advertised 3 polyps, but it also had a fourth baby polyp already developing and an additional bonus zoa growing on the frag plug. It was obvious these weren't freshly cut frags. The zoas were well established, firmly attached to the plugs, and had clearly been growing for quite some time before shipping. Within a short time of acclimation, nearly all of the polyps were opening and looked healthy. Coloration matched the photos very well, and all three varieties have excellent contrast under reef lighting. It's refreshing to order corals and feel like you received more than expected instead of the bare minimum. I'll definitely be ordering from Lazy's Coral House again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for healthy, well-established zoanthids with honest packaging and generous polyp counts.

Great corals, easy ordering and pickup, and great communication. The branding and packaging is is on point. Will be ordering again when my pennies are replenished.

I can't say enough about Lazys Coral House. As a relatively new reefer, I needed some guidance in selecting coral. Brian sold me impeccable, beautiful corals.. offered advice and delivery was almost instant. Their solid 5 star rating isn't without merit; exemplary corals and customer service. I will ONLY be buying corals from this shop from here on.

Great prices and very great and healthy coral!!

Incredible experience. I have been into high end zoas and mushrooms for years, and finally made a purchase from Brian! The delivery showed up in about 24 hours, after traveling in 15-25 degree temps. I got everything placed in the tank, and it all immediately opened up. The quality was WAY better than advertised as well. Bria communicated with me throughout the process and even made his own shipping recommendations shortly after I placed the order. Now I have to figure out which money tree I have to chop down for this guy!

Lazys Coral House is an absolute gem in the reefing community! Their price-to-quality and price-to-quantity ratios are unmatched, making them my go-to for corals every time. One thing that truly sets them apart is their overflowing frags. Their tanks are always teeming with an incredible selection of vibrant, healthy frags, making it feel like a treasure hunt every time you shop. Whether you’re looking for unique collector’s pieces or just need to fill out your reef with beautiful, affordable additions, they’ve got you covered. The quality is top-notch—you can tell they take excellent care of their stock. These corals are healthy, colorful, and ready to thrive in your tank. Plus, the prices are extremely fair, especially considering the quantity and variety they offer. If you’re looking for a coral shop that delivers overflowing selection, unbeatable value, and outstanding service, Lazys Coral House is the place to go. Highly recommend!

Been shopping with lazy for over 12years always great corals. I always buy here first unless it something he doesn't have.

If you are looking to find Ohio's highest quality coral Lazy's Coral House is your spot. Five star service start to finish. Brian produces beautiful healthy pieces, he loves what he does and it shows.

HANDS DOWN THE BEST CORALS!! First class shipping. Frags opened up immediately - have purchased LPS, SPS, and softies!!

All the corals I received from Lazy's Coral House arrived beautiful and healthy. Good size frags, great packaging, prompt shipping, and clear communication. Couldn't ask for anything more. Thank you!

Beyond happy with my order. Some of the brightest and healthiest zoas I have ever seen. I will definitely be ordering from Lazy’s again!!

Lazy is far from the nickname! This is my new go to coral shop. I’ve bought local and bought online from competitors and have NEVER gotten the same quality pieces that I got from Lazy at a stupid reasonable price. Not to mention the fact that the owner is super responsive (like text me in 20 minutes of order) and super willing to share knowledge of each piece ordered and placement recommendations. I will be back…now look at my frags. 🫶🤣 you rock Lazy!

Better than great, pictures do little for what you actually get!

Corals arrived in excellent shape and much larger than expected. Packaging was superb.

Home based witch is fine. Cons from someone who is out of state on work. 1. No hours 2. No signage, in today's world, not walking up to some random house. 3. No voice-mail. It's just generic default. 🥲 because corals and setup look amazing.

Deep colored, healthy corals acclimated easily and thriving since arriving two days ago. Purple tip hammer at 6 o'clock, thick & dense torch at 11, and duncan 2. Patiently waiting best I can to make another order. My many thanks to Lazy Coral House shop!

First time buyer Packaging was professional Order a a zoe with 3 palup got one with 6 lazy goes above and beyond good customer service

I've had nothing but success with this vendor. Pictures are accurate and the prices are very reasonable. I've been ordering for a few years now. He takes the time to listen to all your questions no matter how crazy they may seem. He wants you to be a successful reefer. Highly recommended

Great service, corals are the best I have seen anywhere. Very knowledgeable and willing to spend time to explain any questions you have and share his knowledge. Highly recommended.

New reefer. Brian has been wonderful even before I bought my first frags with lots of great suggestions regarding water parameters, light, and flow. I got a quick tour of his facility and it is just outstanding. Got my first order and they were very well packaged and are doing great!! You can’t go wrong with Lazy’s!

My package arrived on time & it was securely packaged. All the corals & anenome arrived safe & healthy. I'm very happy with this purchase & will be ordering from Lazys Coral House Again ! Thank You Lazys Coral !!!

5 stars! I'd give more if I could! Over the past 3-4 months I have placed two orders with Brian. The orders have been a mix of SPS, LPS, and Softies ranging from run of the mill replacement grow out stock to rare Zoanthids and fuzzy sticks. Both orders have arrived looking identical or even better than those purchased via WYSIWYG. Additionally, Brian provides specimens in peak health that are fully encrusted and free of pests. including Strawberry Shortcake Acropora, Sunkist Bounce shrooms, and AOI Zoanthids. Incredibly hard to find species and color morphs at affordable prices. Finally, Brian does a phenomenal job shipping his corals. I've ordered from just about every well promoted domestic retailer over the past 14 years and it's incredibly rare to get corals that look identical or better to those purchased, shipped overnight, in weather ranging from 100 degrees to 20 degrees, that arrive without a single stressed out piece. Brian does a great job to check the weather conditions, pack the corals accordingly, and stay in contact with his customers during the shipping process. If you're a seasoned reefer looking for some extraordinary buys then Lazy's Coral House is your place and Brian is who you want to place your next order with.

Bryan is one of the best at what he does. And the customer service he provides is awesome. I highly recommend Lazys if you want beautiful corals at a great price.

Hands down a top notch place! Customer service is above and beyond. He is very responsive and is willing to accommodate. I'm new to reef keeping and I was having an issue with one of my corals (my fault) and he stayed up late messaging me to help trouble shoot. He also will work with you to arrange pickup. Prices are very fair, all 7 frags I've received so far in 2 orders have been healthy and pest free. I can't recommend enough.

Best corals in the Cincinnati/ dayton/Columbus area. Coral quality, customer service and communication is incredible. Can't recommend enough.

Corals glowed out of the bags..everything was full and healthy looking..bookmarked site..will order from again..A+

Top notch customer service and careful consideration to what you are purchasing and how it is being transported. Highly suggest placing an order with this company! I am absolutely blown away. I am a local hobbyist of years and years and this particular spot is absolutely one of a kind top tier. 5 stars and extra work shifts on the schedule so I can stop back through soon!

Lazy coral house is well worth the space in your tank. All the coral is healthy and wonderfully packed when shipped. The prices are very fair, the photos on the site are accurate, and the service has been outstanding. I keep coming back for more.

I love buying corals from this place. The quality of the corals are really good. You can tell he takes really good care of them. Highly recommend.

I’ve purchased from Lazy’s Coral House twice now, with a total of around 10 frags ranging from softies to LPS/SPS. I purchased online via their easy to use website and picked up the same day. The corals were carefully individually packaged and accompanied by a heat pack to help them maintain their temperature. Most importantly they were exactly as they appeared in the images online and were of exceptional quality and healthy. There are many good suppliers of corals in the Cincinnati/Dayton area but Lazy’s corals are a step up. Every piece so far has been free of pests, disease and have been healthy and vibrant. Sourcing corals from Lazy has taken both of my reef tanks to a whole new level with stunning showpieces that have all quickly adapted to my tanks and I’ve had zero issues since introducing them. The prices are fair and the quality is excellent, there are also many more unique corals that I have not seen at other suppliers. It is safe to say at this point when I am in need of a specific coral I will look to Lazy’s first! *I’ll post pictures of a few of them but my camera doesn’t do them justice.

First time there today and will not be the last! Beautiful selection and great prices!! Can't go wrong here.

This place is sort of a side business in a basement so it takes some planning and patience to be able to line up with when they are open, but the tanks and setup are one of the cleanest i have ever seen. friendly people. And great selection of corals.

Incredible shop- great looking coral and great service with a smile

Great place to pick up nice corals!
