Reef Coral is owned and run by Ron Sumer one of Baton Rouge’s few scuba diving adventurers. Ron’s enthusiasm for marine life began when he was just six years old. It was then that his parents gave him five goldfish to care for which led to the development of his hobby of raising fish. As a result, Ron eventually got into the business of selling freshwater fish as a teenager, and now here he is yea
rs later opening his own store to share what he has seen and experienced during his aquatic adventures. From the vivid coral reefs of Mexico, to the shorelines of Greece, to the ancient underwater city of Bodrum off the coast of his native Turkey, Ron has for most of his life been living out his passion for scuba diving. Finally, after much hard work he has opened up his very own one-stop shop where he can share his passion for fish and reef coral with Baton Rouge. What sets Reef Coral apart from many other aquatic shops is that we want you to be able to create your own distinct aquarium that can maintain a healthy ecosystem.
