Edmonton Frag a lot group order

[wickedfrags]

i would estimate less than 5% losses during shipping of SPS frags assuming next day delivery, greg (coralmaster) would agree with this I suspect.

freshly chopped frags off recently imported colonies are risk to ship and in some cases even to buy from the store

i've had loss from 3 different vendors i've had shipped and even frags I have personally driven home (12 hours) some just don't do well... some do.. it depends on conditions as well!

yup I wouldn't put the blame on the vendor all the time, you don't know whats going on when its being shipped. plain and simple.

Also every SPS frag I've gotten from Burc has been fully fleshed and showed polyp exension within days of being in my tank

I guess its just luck of the draw really.

50% losses for me. IMHO best to buy local so you see what you get.
