Default Wowza~!

I just got my frag of Montipora setosa from Paul at Oceanic - I've waiting on this since late August, as it's a coral I've wanted since Reefing day 1. All I can say is wow! It's a great size frag (growing out since I prepaid back in Sept), looking encrusted and super healthy. very impressed - you're going to make a repeat customer of me for sure!

I've talked with him a few times on the phone, and he's a super guy to deal with - tried to accomodate us as best as possible, and kept us updated the whole time (from late august till now!). Setting up a buy with a bunch of us from Ontario was easy, and I look forward to dealing with him more in the future.

Pics to come

I'll show you mine if you show me yours

It's big - a lot bigger than I expected for a "frag" from a retailer, colour looks awesome, even under my room lights. I'll try to get it up (har har har) by tomorrow afternoon - it's almost 1 am here

I was eyeballing your Setosa when I was in the shop with Paul a few days ago.... I didn't know it was for you. Nice catch!

Where did you get that stylo? It's electric!

Is it Greg's Neon Green Stylo?
