MEGA Matrix Options
Standard vs Crystal Glass – regular glass panels have a slight green tint due to the iron content in the glass. Crystal glass is a low-iron glass that offers better clarity and less color distortion. The color of your fish, plants and corals will be more vibrant when viewed through low-iron glass.
Diamond Polished Edges – most aquariums feature just a straight cut and flat-sanded edges: which are often jagged and the corners are sharp. The MEGA Matrix Aquariums offer upgraded diamond polished edges that feature beveled corners and a smooth upscale finish.
Black vs Clear Silicone – Black silicone offers a more-modern look while clear silicone makes the joint look more seamless (Black silicone comes standard. Clear available upon request).
Internal vs External Overflow Boxes – Internal overflow boxes takes up more space inside the aquarium but are easier to install and plumb. The bottom of the aquarium is drilled to accommodate drain and return lines. External overflow boxes use a very slim box inside the aquarium that drains to a larger drain box located outside of the aquarium. Due to its design, external overflow boxes take up a lot less room inside the aquarium; leaving more space for aquascaping and for fish to swim in.
Clear vs Black Backgrounds – Black backgrounds allow you to hide all the wiring and create more contrast between the back wall and the inhabitants in your aquarium.

Coral Vault only ships out healthy and pest-free specimens. If something changes with a specimen that is in your order between the time you order and when the coral is shipped out, we will contact you to discuss your options.
Orders are shipped overnight, Monday-Thursday. Orders are packaged and shipped as they are received and you will be contacted regarding your shipment. If you have a special delivery request, it should be noted on the invoice or by sending us an email.
All corals purchased online are guaranteed alive on arrival. We use specially designed packaging to ensure livestock arrives in optimal condition. If we see there will be extreme weather or other circumstances that will create poor shipping conditions we may request to cancel or delay a shipment.
We recommend having the shipping facility hold your order for pickup. This prevents specimens from exposure to the heat or cold and riding around in a delivery truck. Most packages are available for pick by 10:30 AM. If you select this option, we require pick-up within 2 hrs of arrival. To have your package held at your local shipping facility, please make a note when paying the invoice, or email us immediately after you make your purchase.
Some species such as Hammers, Torches, Frogspawn, and other similar corals can pull their tissue into their skeleton during shipping. This reverses itself once the coral is placed in an aquarium.

If your claim is validated, we will issue store credit for the price that was paid for the coral. In the event of a DOA, shipping costs are not refunded. Corals that are part of a giveaway, or are a bonus item that is part of sponsored events are not eligible for DOA claims.
