OK, slight issue. Shouldn't be a big deal. It seems fraggle reef screwed up the shipping address, using my billing street address plus the correct shipping ZIP, so, basically, a non-existent address. But it's all good. They are holding the box at the facility right around the corner from my house, so I will pick it up as soon as I leave work. So pickup time will be any time after 3:30pm today. I will contact miguel about this right now.

Thanks to everyone for picking up their stuff in such a timely manner. Please include updates/pics/etc in this thread so everyone can have an idea of what fragglereef is like (since this was my first time ordering from them).
Thanks.

OK, so....what does everyone think? My zoa frags are nice. The dragon eyes are tiny and kinda sad looking (must be dwarf dragons ), but otherwise not bad. The watermelons are big and beautiful. The alien eclipse whatchamacallits have not opened yet, but look healthy. The mushroom rocks are packed, though the Tonga's did not ship well...will lose a few.

The LOTRs are quite hot pink under my PC lighting, some of the Neon Eagle Eyes have interesting sprinkle patterns in them (specs that don't move....like flatworms or nudibranchs <whew!> ) and the Neon Zombie Eyes are a little dull (this colony had a lot of macro algae that my blue legged hermits are enjoying), but one of the polyps is showing a nice fluorescent "eye". Given a few days, I'm sure they'll all brighten up more. I think I have a spaghetti worm hitchhiker which is kinda fun to watch as it pulls up bits of sand with its strands.
I can try to post pics, but they're so small. If I get a decent pic, I'll post. I've been thinking about buying a digital camera with a macro lens, but I need to do more research 'cuz they're $$$.
Here's my attempt at a pic. I've only got an "old" Kodak DC280, so.....Originally Posted by SDguy

I'm currently limited to 100k of posting power, so I've provided a link. If anyone wants to update this thread with the original file, they're welcome to do so.
The pic is of Neon Zombie Eyes, Neon Eagle Eyes and Lord of the Rings (LOTR) Zoanthids purchased from Fraggle Reef. All the macro algae growth on the Zombie Eyes was removed by my trustworthy cleaning crew! Off to the left you'll see a sample of green zoas I picked up from PK (Nova green? Neon green?).
Is there really a difference between Eagle Eyes and Neon Eagle Eyes or is that some kinda marketing technique?
Hey, those are nice!

I have some dynamite - things could get super interestingOriginally Posted by JHAI3
Last time i ordered from them i recieved a super bleached bta, a wrong coral, and lots of hair algae. I just took it as a loss. Hope you guys had a better experience than I.
My last experience netted me a nice clam and an acan that had no water in the bag when it was received. Their response was "Acans are very hardy. It should be OK." It is still barely hanging on, but not looking too good and that was a few months ago.

Ya, I couldn't tell if my bags were leaking when I got home. It probably was water on the outside left over from the SDguy's tank. The bags did not empty completely. I did note that they heat seal a single bag instead double bagging or using rubber bands.Originally Posted by DaveMorris
I would think that more expensive specimens would get more attention to packaging.
All six of my bags were sealed well/had quite a bit of water in them, except the Tonga shrooms (too small a bag/volume water, IMHO).
