You can call them and give them your info over the phone. It's $37.50 per year (6 issues) except in California, where it is $40.60. Outside the U.S. it's $61.50 per year. Or, you could subscribe to the original German version, Koralle, if you life in Europe and read German.

They will sell you back issues for $10.00 each. Your local LFS may have back issues on hand for $6.95 each. One of the moderators on Reefland can get most of the back issues for you for $6.95, I think. At least that's what he told Gene and I AFTER we had already paid $10.00 each for our back issues.

Havent subscribed yet to it but intend to soon. I did however get a copy of Volume 2 number 1 and its a great magazine dont get me wrong, but I thought the majority of the magazine would be devoted to corals, my volume is mainly about octopuses. There was some good reading on other things but it seemed to have over half the articles on octopuses.

Rocky,

Maybe the name of the magazine is misleading. It's not just about corals. Each issue concentrates on one topic and that one topic takes up about half that issue.

Volume 1, Number 1 is Seahorses. Number 2 is Nano Reef Aquaria. Number 3 is Giant Clams. Number 4 is Lionfishes. Number 5 is Nudibranchs. Number 6 is Pygmy Angelfishes.

Volume 2, Number 1 is Octopuses. Number 2 is Leather Corals.

And vol. 2 #3 is slated to be about Surgeonfishes.

Great magazine.

I realize this is an old thread, but it comes up high in search for "Coral Magazine," and the information is badly out of date now.

CORAL has a new publisher, and you can learn more here:

Coral Magazine Online Subscription Center

The magazine was relaunched with the January/February 2009 Issue (Triggerfishes). Subscriptions are now $37 per year, plus a free issue during the relaunch.

The people behind the new CORAL are the same group who publish the Microcosm Books.

The current issue has an amazing piece on the successful keeping and breeding of the Orangespotted Filefish, Oxymonacanthus longirostris, by Matt Pedersen.

Hi James,




Thank you for updating this old thread, less confusion for everone.

PS. The last issue is wonderful!

Yes, I still get calls everyday from people who thought the magazine had disappeared in December. In any case, CORAL is alive and well and trying to uphold the fine traditions of the original European edition, KORALLE.
