I just received a shipment of frags from whatcaneyedo here.

I was disappointed after I had paid for frags, I received mini-colonies. Yes, it's a terrible thing that eyedo is doing here, all this false advertising. I should be pulling out the microscope to examine my 1/2" SPS frags and to be able to count polyps on one hand for my zoanthid frags.

It was the best shipment of coral I've ever received. The corals were in fantastic health, many of them were well-encrusted, enormous, and opened up within an hour of being in my tank. The box he sent could have probably fit a few children inside of it. Everything was packed well and I have no complaints.

There were a couple brittle stars in one of the bags, but not your average brittle stars. These things were like the godzilla of lizards...enormous things. What steroids are you feeding them?

You won't be disappointed. The colours were vibrant, the corals were healthy and he was very diligent about answering emails and giving me shipping updates. All in all an excellent experience. I would definitely order from him again, but I fear I have everything that he has in his tank already!

Thanks for the positive sarcasm. At first glance you had me a little worried there.

I just did some major downsizing with a few colonies last weekend and I've still got two full colonies that I'd like to get rid of completely. The big pink/purple Pocillopora chuck, the toadstool and the pink leather are $20 each. The abnormally large frags of Acropora are $5. I've also got smaller frags of all of these plus a modest assortment of other stuff (listed in the first post of this thread) for $5 each.

Out of the handful of PMs I just received not a single person wants to buy those big green WYSIWYG acropora frags so I've dropped the price of them down to $5. But at least the Pocillopora is now spoken for.

I must say, your frags are certainly very generous! Only one recommendation, let the buyer know how big the frags are as it may not fit in their tank!!!

Great communication through out the deal. Although it looks like the poci colony may not make it as water leaked out of the bag, S**T happens . I would still deal with Russell again! Great Price and size on the corals!
