Tandor69 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Amazing that you are doing this for the community. That's why I drive up from Salem just to shop at your store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be selling coral on the streets out of a cart! 2 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertareef Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 This is awesome Jeff. We are very lucky to have local vendors that are as invested in the community as they are and willing to get creative in how to be supportive while also running a business. Thank you for your efforts... I have a feeling more than a few of us may well need to take you up on these options before things return to "normal".

albertareef Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Lots of great items in the shop so if you are needing to pick up supplies it's worth a look - with proper safety measures of course 👍 The curbside pickup seems to be a working well from what I could see so thanks to Jeff and the rest of the CnC team for trying to keep both our tanks and ourselves safe and healthy.

CuttleFishandCoral Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 We at Cuttlefish wanted to say thank you all for your continued support in these difficult times. We greatly appreciate the business we have been getting despite the new challenges we are faced with in our day to day lives. With so many experiencing new difficulties, we are here to help in any way we can. Your aquariums rely on supplies that we provide in order to survive and thrive. As such, we are considered an essential business and will remain open. We will also be offering discounts on the dry goods you need in order to keep your aquariums happy and healthy. Foods, salt, and more are still discounted to help out our reefing community know their basics are covered. We still have lots of incredible fish and corals for sale, too. If you need something new to watch grow during your quarantine, let us know. We are offering curbside pickup, allowing a limited number of customers into the store at a time for browsing (with increased sanitation measures and social distancing rules in place), as well as offering delivery to the Portland area for a small fee. With many of you staying home, we have been looking for new, creative ways to get our fish and corals to you. We will ship corals anywhere in the lower 48 states and have really been enjoying putting on live sales for everyone's entertainment as well as to give you all some great deals on new corals. We are planning another live sale for next Sunday afternoon with even more improvements. Thank you all for joining in on our first two and look forward to even more incredible pieces at amazing prices. We thank you all again for helping us and we look forward to hearing how we can be helpful to you now and in the future. - The Team at Cuttlefish and Corals 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
