Review Highlights - Reef Systems Coral Farm

Other stores in central Ohio are landlocked in their tank real estate, so they are almost always just reselling livestock they have brought in.

Once we got past a little bit of the sticker shock for tickets (we were only visiting for two hours…read moremax), we thoroughly enjoyed our visit here. Our only regret was not having more time to see all of the wings and exhibits COSI has to offer. I was surprised that for the ticket price they didn't include the Behind the Science of Pixar exhibit. Parking can easily be found in their underground garage that is nearly connected. We explored the museum with our two and four year olds- making our way between the engineering/innovators exhibit, young kiddo play area, and caught a science show on the main stage (they seem to keep it fairly booked with various topics throughout the day). They also offer a gift shop and a movie theatre for documentaries like a piece on Ohio's wildlife. Overall, a positive experience and I look forward to visiting again with more time.

Great day for the kids. Pretty interesting for adults, too. The permanent exhibits are fascinating,…read moreand they have some rotating exhibits included with general admission. It's irritating that the special exhibits have extra entry fees, but I guess that's how things are these days. Everything has an upcharge. The food in the cafe tastes good, is overpriced, and is unforgivably stingy. The chicken salad sandwich would probably be good if they actually put chicken salad in it, and for the price, they damn well should. The exhibits are dusty and could use a cleaning. This, to me, was ridiculous, and took away from the experience. The kids probably didn't care, but when you're a parent throwing money at a place, hand over fist, you at least would like it clean. Good lord, the gift shop... handfuls of target and dollar store crap your kids will bawl their eyes out for. Be prepared. You've seen everything there at half the price.

It's always interesting to see how people restore old homes. We are given the opportunity to take…read morean intimate look at a half dozen or so homes in the German Village part of town. The German Village Haus und Garten Tour is held the last Sunday of every June. It is sponsored by the German Village Society (and of course, the gracious folks who open their homes to the public). Tickets can be purchased in advance. But keep in mind, walking tours are available practically year round. Just pop into the German Village Meeting Haus, 588 South Third Street, to catch a 12-minute video and pick up a guide to the historic district. The 233-acre neighborhood is the largest, privately-funded historic district in the country. It's a neat place to wander around.

Having just moved from a historical neighborhood that has annual home tours (I even hosted one…read moretime), I totally get how much time and effort going into organizing an event such as this, let alone the amount of time and effort the actual home owner has to invest. As for the home tour here in German Village, it was very nice. Having friends that used to live in the village, I've had the opportunity to visit several of the area houses during and after their transformation... I love the historical feel and the effort made to preserve the essence of the area!! Why only 3 stars??? Well, as I mentioned at the start of this, I've done this sort of thing before. I love the intent of the fund-raising activity, but I feel the price of $20 per person is ... a BIT much. Had it not been for Groupon offering $15 for TWO tickets, I would not have attended. So glad I did not shell out $40 to stand in line or well over an hour at each house. They're nice and all, but way to crowded. And to stand in line for that long to only see 2-3 rooms on average in most houses..... When I did this a few years ago, I totally loved the experience of meeting and talking with all the people who had actually paid money to come look at my house. It made all the work and effort worth it!! Here in German village, I met only one single owner... REALLY??? Anyway, it was a good onetime experience, as I will probably not attend this again.

I only rated one star, because I could not rate less. This guy deserves-10 stars. I had put over…read more$5,000 in to my tank and paid Matt to setup my tank and do water changes every two weeks. The first month was ok by month 6 Matt did a water change and introduced ick into my tank and killed all my fish but one and then tried to sell me more instead of replacing them. I read online that as long as you take all the fish out of your tank for 6 weeks ick will die out of your tank. I didn't need Matt for that six week period, I took my water weekly to Rivers to Reefs to get it tested and they even showehow to test my self,and my water conditions were perfect. My coral was thriving beautiful. I was a loyal customer to Matt and it was about time for a water change and I called Matt he came to my house looking high and changed my water and left everything dead. When I called him about it he said he could have been that my nitrates were to high, but when I told him I had the water tested just days before and the water conditions were perfect he said he may have put in fresh water but he was not going to replace any coral or any fish and if I want to get my money back I should I have my lawyer call him. I'm in the process of taking him to court now but the guy is a real loser, buying fish or coral from him or having him do you water changes is VERY HIGH RISK Updated this review in response to the scum bag store owner he never tried to mend the relationship, a law suit would never be involved if he just replaced everything he killed in my tank. DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE of doing business with Matt if you value your aquarium, I think he will kill everything in your tank, my tank was maintained by Matt and the picture you see is his REAL WORK. For aquariums Matt is dangerous!! VERY HIGH RISK Proceed with caution!!!!

Asked if I could have a credit since I did not know they were having a sale. The owner refused to give me a credit saying "we don't know when we are going to have a sale until the day of" the worst customer service and I will NEVER by another product there. I recommend Coral Farms of New Albany and Rivers to Reefs in Gahanna as excellent alternatives. Guy may know his corals but he doesn't understand customer service!!!

The hunting and marsh area of the hatchery is a very beautiful place full of wildlife there is also a archery range that is available to the public. If your looking for a chill place to go for a walk and explore this would be a neat place to check out. Be aware that during hunting seasons there could be deer or waterfowl lottery hunts taking place.

The facility is just off the 70 near Buckeye Lake, though presently some road construction requires you to drive a large loop to get there. If you're curious about the hatchery, the education center is a good place to start. There are displays about hatchery operations and some brochures that guide you around the rest of the buildings. The Hebron Fish Hatchery raises walleyes, saugeyes, striped bass, bluegills, and channel catfish. There are sixty-three open in-ground ponds, where you can hike and birdwatch. The fish holding and distribution center has large tanks of fish and the incubation area, where you can see tubes of fish eggs that will make you a little reluctant to eat tapioca in the future. It was an open house event when I visited, so there were several activities for kids including a fishing pond and an archery range. The staff was friendly and happy to talk about the hatchery. I grew up visiting the Nimbus Fish Hatchery on the American River in CA, which collects and raises Pacific salmon and steelhead, but this is a far more modest operation. It's certainly worth a look around, but don't make a special trip from Columbus just to see the place.
