I have only had the opportunity to visit Greg once, and I can say his tanks are stupdendous, his prices are excellent, and his patience is quite unlimited when answering questions from a newbie to saltwater. I ended up spending $100 while receiving corals and algaes that I know were worth more than that.

Then I made the mistake of buying a tubeworm from a LFS that I was told would "do just fine in your tank". I now affectionately refer to it as the "Whip of Death" as it has stinging extensions that instantly kill just about anything they touch. So a lot of my corals from Greg are in the coral graveyard.

I shall have to stop by again once the Whip of Death has died from old age. With my luck that sucker will live twenty years.

Of course, none of that is Greg's fault. I am sure my corals would have done just fine if they had not been exposed to the whip.

Thanks for the good deal, Greg.

Karen

It was referred to as a tube worm but I think it must be an anemone. It is bright pink and has long (about eight inches each) skinny tentacles.

I do not want to hijack the post - so say something nice about Coral Master!

Something nice about Greg....hmmmmm....

Just kidding....well I have yet to get to his place to buy anything even though I have bugged him a few times over certain pieces. I have heard his corals are fantastic and cant wait to actually see them.....all your testimony just makes me want to see his corals that much more....and of course pick out a few for my tank....

Word of advice - take lots of CASH because you will be leaving with more than you thought you would!

I started another post on the Whip of Death for anyone who is interested.

Jason - It was nice to see you again, I appreciate your business.

Karen - Sorry to hear about your coral stinging problems. Maybe see if you can trade it in on something else at a LFS. I'll look forward to seeing you again soon.
