About Our Auctions

Underwater Archives, we’re dedicated to sourcing the highest quality fish and coral directly from their natural habitats, ensuring our clients get exclusive, first-priority access to some of the rarest and most sought-after marine life in the world. Here’s how we do it:

1. Direct Imports from the Source
We start by working closely with trusted collectors and divers from renowned marine regions around the globe, including some of our own facilities. These partnerships mean we bring you a hand-selected range of vibrant, healthy fish and coral, direct from ocean waters to our facility. Skipping unnecessary middlemen helps us maintain the best quality at competitive prices.

2. Exclusive Auctions for You
Once the livestock arrives, our clients get first access through our exclusive auctions. Here, you can find everything from rare corals to staple saltwater species, with each auction item handpicked for quality and unique appeal. Our auction format ensures a fair, transparent process where each client has the chance to secure something special for their setup.

3. Unclaimed Pieces for Local Distributors
After the auction, any items that haven’t sold are distributed to local wholesalers in the area. This way, every piece of marine life finds a home, whether it’s through our auctions or through local distribution.
