He is the RR of Hamilton. Man I drool as soon as I see the glow when I go over. Always something new that catches my eye.

Sadly ReefRaft doesn't exist out west :-(

Also, thank god ReefRaft doesn't exist out west Although, I wouldn't mind trying a piece or two of RR one of these days. I hear they can be quite challenging to maintain colour.

Thankfully ReefRaft will ship lol. I have 7 rr pieces and yes some are harder. But mostly because the origanal pics are from when they first come into captivity. My pink Floyd for eg is not the pink Floyd we see. That's the downside of wild pieces

Ya, I tried to set up a group order with a local Calgarian a few months ago. It kinda fell through the cracks though. Mostly because neither of us were prepared for the financial hit at that time I may try again one day, but it's not easy. They gave us their marketing pictures only, so no WYSIWYG unfortunately. And yes, you're right. With most of these pieces being wild it's a bit of a crap shoot in trying to maintain their lustre.

Anyway, in the meantime I will just enjoy vicariously through this thread :-D

I think you should buy yourself a early Christmas present and order from Bigshow

Reef Raft Canada has recently closed its doors to retail.

They are a wholesale only company now.

Although Jay has closed his doors to the general public, he will still be around selling corals privately. I wouldn't rule out getting specific corals shipped. RR doesn't want to deal with the day to day traffic, but shipments are still in the ball game!

The best corals in Canada will still come through RR.

The plot thickens! That's certainly an interesting turn of events. So does that mean they're going to be another "ReefWholesale" ? With the exception that they may ship to the odd hobbyist ?

Also, sorry for the 'jack. Maybe we should move this discussion into the lounge
