He only got this response because he is a vendor (in another country) and its wrong. He can't sell here. So what...he got a big buzz over something that isn't going to make him any money amongst the buzzing people. And trust me, whatever buzz is happening in Canada isn't going to help him in the US. For one, half the states barely know Canada exists and the rest don't give a...

Im not too sure what benefit he has gained in a market he cannot make money off of legally. Please explain.

I thought the pictures looked enhanced. So I asked if anyone else felt that way. Got myself a new @ss whole ripped for my efforts. But as a vendor you would think he would want to know what people really think of his photos wether good or bad.

LETS GET READY TO RUMMMMMMBLE !!!!!1

Holy Bitchfest, Batman! Seriously, can't you all just hug and make up?

Some guy just posts some pictures of some snazzy looking corals and your all up in arms about it. Have you seen some of the pictures in the POTM threads? Here look at this one from Sphelps: http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...alicemacro.jpg. Anyone getting all ****y over that one? Nope. Or check out ZoaElite's zoa pics... Freakin' cool stuff.

There are more diplomatic ways of questioning the authenticity of something (which you are totally within your rights to do). "Hey dude, those are some pretty sweet looking corals. What lights do you use to make them look like that or do you edit your photos after? I want mine to look like that". "Aw, thanks man! Ya, they totally look like that in the tank, you need some serious lighting to get that though. I only change the white balance after so they don't look washed out." Done. Finished. Everyone's friends. No need for 6 friggin' pages of people trash talking each other.

Aquarium nerds, there are bigger fish to fry than arguing over the internet about someones pictures! (See what I did there? That's punny stuff!)

By the way, my zoas glow like that it night, maybe even more... that's why I keep them. If you want to figure out why yours don't let's start another thread and talk about it over there.

Hey mods, how about... you know... doin' some moderatin'?

I'm thinking the mods won't see that as a prime example of your diplomacy lol.

Just to add fuel to the fire...zoas are not covered by CITES so as long as they are on artificial plugs and not live rock then technically he could ship to Canada. Whether he is willing to undertake the hassle or not is a completely different story but it is legal
