Further more they are passionate hobbyists who love reefing:smile:
Hi RK, their passion for the hobby is not being questioned but how they sell is. They have a tendancy of using the same pic over and over again. In many cases this would be considered "false advertising", no? Sure, their pictures are saturated to the extreme but the coral received by the buyer should at least have resemblance in terms of shape etc... There has been many requests for actual pictures of the corals and the admins seems to be able to successfully fail well at this by either deleting the post or simply ignoring it. They have written the rules in how everyone should be conducting themselves, perhaps they should set an example and follow these rules.

Lol take a look at how a lot of wholesalers and vendors take pics. You shoot the coral on a black background so the focus is on the coral. Feel free to contact me on GTAA...Rookies lololol...

ok ill chime in...

i have purchased 1 piece from said people, it arrived in murky water and stunk as soon as i opened it coral was barely alive and died... not happy but i figured ill give them one more try....

So far all these points are totally valid aout the photos, most of you have seen my tank and my photos, there is no reson to edit them as such, it has screwed theyre credibility. i barely edit the lighting, brightness and luminiosity but not colours, and i certanly dont need to black out edeges for a clean picture, its called cropping...

I have placed an order for some high end acros, so i will put up a solid review of how my order transpires.

I will be honest and take my own photos upon arrival, if they are close to the pictures (Heaven and Hell, Blue Matrix) and alive i will be happy.

Stay tuned for some cool coral photos or watch one ****ed off customer retaliate.

PS: Coralfarms.ca has the same stuff she does for half the price....not an auction, found out after placing an order..

Good Luck with your order. I can tell you that their blue matrix picture is not going to resemble your piece.
