For Sale: SPS and more SPS from Toronto
 
Hi guys,

I need to cut down some of the clutter in my tank, so I made some frags.

Shipping, you can choose yourself, but you will assume all responsibility if they arrive dead (my packaging is exceptional, as I take pride in making sure that the elements won't have a negative impact on the corals). Cannot send packages via WestJet as they don't accept cargo from individuals or businesses that don't have a commercial account with them.

Here are the pictures of the mother colonies. All frags are minimally 1" and can be mounted upon request.

Many here can attest to the quality and size of my frags, even the coral master himself, Greg T.

wow some sweet pieces, if you were here I would have to swing by and grab some however I don't like to get stuff shipped!

Atomikk 04-03-2008 10:56 PM

Had bad experiences?

Keri 04-04-2008 01:53 AM

Love the colours, wish you were closer (or that I didn't live in a remote area making shipping a Very bad idea)

Atomikk 04-04-2008 01:28 PM

What I tell people is to have a shipping address of a friend or relative that is in a bigger city that they can drive into. They shipping is very easy.

Also, I am looking for: True sunset montipora, rainbow montipora, Atlantis Aquarium Pink Polyp Cap. Trades are welcome!

Too many!

not getting what you order(stuff looks nothing like what you order even under atinics), bad packaging, stuff missing from the order and to boot shipping on top of that. I'm not saying everyone is like this but having it done to you a couple times kinda leaves a sour taste in your mouth and a bad memory dealing with buying stuff online.

I tend to spend abit like most reefers on here, seeing is believing! I know exactly what I'm getting and it's always been a pleasure dealing with people locally, man why are you and 250 even Greg so far away wish you guys lived in Van.

Hey Chris - should the experience(s) you mentioned below be with me please feel free to post this.

Reason I mention it - I would hate for people to think your poor experince(s) were with me if in fact they were not. Think that would be fair for everyone (while otherwise not mentioning who the poor experiences were with).

Sorry to hijack Vlad - and great looking corals you posted. Good luck with the sale.

Dave

Dave, aren't you (weren't you) 250? :wink:

If anyone wants to do a frag pack, PM me with a list and I will see what I can do for you.

Cheers.

How often do you frag? I'm gearing up to order some SPS in the future, but I won't be ready for a month or so.

Jason McK 04-07-2008 05:46 AM

Just a question, not to discredit your coral, But how are your pieces designated LE?

J

ElGuappo 04-07-2008 06:14 AM

What is LE?

I frag all the time now, since my colonies grow fairly quickly. I would say once a month.

LE is limited edition, in other words, rarely seen or distributed.

LE is designated either by the original coral grower, or the market. Its like a car that is in production in limited quantity. I personally know that certain corals are in limited quantity (being immersed in the reef culture in Toronto). Some are due to the fact that even big rare coral collectors don't have certain corals that I have.. such as the Grape Millepora. I hope that clears things up.

ElGuappo 04-07-2008 04:48 PM

Thank you for answering. although it must be tough to get thelittle LE tags on all of these corals.LOL:mrgreen:

Again by no means am I saying you do not have a wonderful collection of rare corals. I do understand what LE means. I'm wondering how it was determined that those pieces above are LE. Is this something MAST has recognized?

Atomikk 04-08-2008 12:27 AM

Until MAST or MACNA start recognizing corals for their rarity or collectability, the LE stamp will usually be given by the orinigal founder of the coral, or those who know the rarity of the species in question.

The LE stamp stays with the coral as long as it is a slow grower, or distributed in limited quantity by a few fellow reefers.

This is a controversial topic that many stay away from.

Yes it would be a great topic for debate. But I should not have brought it up in your Farg sale thread. Sorry. I will start it's own thread at a later date
