Big changes are coming starting August 1st! We are stepping back from the in person store side to focus our time and energy on aquaculturing the coral you all love, as well as wholesale. We will still be selling coral on our website, Coralcrib.com, as well as in store at the same exact location under Redbeard’s Exotic Pet Shop. It will all be the same quality and service you’ve come to expect from us, just under a different name and with the added bonus of an even larger variety of critters. We are super excited for what this is opening up for us and our friends at Redbeard’s. Please go like an follow their page to stay up to date with the retail store!

- Luke Leskovisek, Owner

Great news! We are opening on August 4th and will be located at 1202 Eastport Dr. Bloomington, Il. We are sharing a location with The Coral Crib. We will be taking over the retail and maintenance side of the business, letting The Coral Crib focus on expanding their aqua-culturing of the healthiest and best looking coral in the midwest. Redbeard’s Exotic Pet Shop will continue to sell coral grown by The Coral Crib, as well as expanding over the coming weeks and months to sell captive bred reptiles, amphibians, arachnids, isopods, and supplies necessary for keeping your friends happy and healthy. Please be patient with us while we transition to a full fledged “Exotic Pet Shop.” We hope to meet you soon! - Justin Ridinger (Owner)
