just made an order with these guys. order should be deliverd tomorrow via DHL. I'll keep everyone posted as to how it works out and what kind of shape the corals are in.


Customer service has been good via phone so far though the order process.

Thanks. I would try them, but my tank simply isn't ready for new additions right now. Will be nice to know another source to buy some corals though.

haha i know how you feel about the tank. I'm running out of room, so I actually had to order corals that I know exactly where I can place them.

I've been doing this cool thing lately with 1/4 acrylic rod. I epoxy a length of that to the base of a coral then I can stick it most anywhere on the side of my rockwork I want. Really works good for caps and so forth.

Im getting a red chalice, a nice open brain, some zoas, and some purple and blue ricordias on a rock.

One of the locals had a bit of an issue with that place.

Seems like quote a few people have had delivery and response issues. Hope it works out well for you, B.

actually, one of the corals was in a nearly dry bag, as the water had leaked out. I did contact the guy at coral brokers and he said he would send me another. I've been watching it over the last 24 hrs and honestly a lot of it is in good shape, but about 1/3rd of it is receeding.

Other than that, everything is great. I got an increadible Lobophyllia brain that is red blue pink and green. Some zoas, the chalice that was out of the water, and some ricordias.

I'll keep you posted as to how the dry coral thing is handled.

B, where are the pictures?

 

[SnowManSnow]

no pictures

 

[bleedingthought]

Why not? How can we "rate" their product?

 

[SnowManSnow]

product is reasonable. you still get a better deal dealing locally if possible though

Well, the website (which by the way is www.thecoralbroker.com ) seems to only use actinics for their pictures so they don't seem very "accurate." But they have some crazy colors in LPS.

I wanted to know how they ended up looking under "real" lights.
