Default Dyed Corals!!!! Don't buy them!!!

Here's something you won't see everyday.........a store telling you NOT to buy something in their store.
I recieved some dyed corals on my last shipment. I know this sounds strange, but I am requesting that you DO NOT BUY THEM!!

They are not what I ordered, and in no way reflect my approach or attitude to the hobby.
You may also see them at other stores as we got them from a local transhipper, and they may appear elsewhere in Vancouver and Western Canada. I intend to send a very clear message to the transhipper and exporter that this is not an acceptable practice!
Unfortunately many hobbyists are unaware of this practise and believe they have found a amazing color morph. Instead they are sold a coral with a poor chance of survival.


DON"T BELIEVE ME?
