I have a few seperate chunks of this coral that I grouped together to make up a reasonable colony. Interestingly enough the different chunks are coloring up at very different rates and the frags have been even slower to color so far however they are all from the same original parent colony so I am not concerned. Anyway in the picture below you can see that the chunk on the right side has more color than the piece on the left but it is slowly catching up. I will tell you in advance that the frags of the PPS are healthy but are being very slow to color up and are still fairly browned out although my frag tanks are on a different system than my display with different lighting. That said, this is a coral I am excited about and it is a stunner. Given some time I don't think it will disappoint.

Hey Greg, thanks for the pic, I did recently purchased a piece that looked just like yours but it was sold to me as strawberry short cake but I did find a similar looking colony which was called strawberry lime cake. Just curious what you think. Above is my frag picture.

Thanks in advance for your time.

Hey guys, please pm me what you want from snappy and your email address, I will send out the spreadsheet showing who wants what and how much. Some of you who I have dealt with before know the deal. I will then place the order all together to save some hassle. I will forward you the tracking number once I get it from snappy. I do expect everyone to be at my place that evening to pick up your order and once you are committed there is no backing out.

Thanks Rich

Sounds like payment is easy enough. Is shipping automatically added to the final cart purchase? If yes do you refund this somehow?

For a group order I would assume that as a group you will be ordering enough for free shipping so when ordering on the site after you fill in your info mark it as a local pick up so it doesn't charge shipping. This has worked well in the past but if there are any issues with the site not cooperating please let me know.
I am confident you will be pleased with the way things are tagged and packaged. It's very, very seldom that I ship incorrect orders.

Snaz - Sounds fine by me Bblinks, if anyone has a better suggestions I think your place to receive is perfect.

When to ship? I was thinking anytime really. How does ship Monday Sept 24th to arrive BBlinks morning of Tuesday the 25th sound to everyone? Snapper would these dates work for you?
Keith.

In theory this sounds just fine but the sooner the orders are placed the better so I am ready for you.
Thanks all you guys I appreciate your business.

Wheelman76 - Looking at the site again, I shouldn't have said the stock on LPS was low , I guess it's just the items that I was interested in that were out of stock lol. Acans and Ricordea.

Yeah sorry no acan or rics at the moment.
