Keeping it alive once it arrives

Disclosure: the Chewy links below are affiliate links — if you buy through them we earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. This never affects the prices or vendor rankings above. Details.

A new fish cares most about being acclimated gradually to your tank's own water rather than dropped straight into it — shipping bag water is best kept out of the tank — and then about being offered food it will actually take. Chewy — a general pet retailer that sells no live coral or marine fish, and is not one of the vendors this index tracks — carries reef salt mixes, saltwater test kits, marine fish food, and coral and invertebrate food.

Price history

The market median for Gem Tang has changed 5 times in 55 days of tracking. Median shifts here usually come from vendor promotion events or the in-stock mix changing rather than gradual drift (how these prices actually behave) — genuine repricings land on the price drops page as we observe them.
