    Default Nice shipment

    I know these guys don't post much, but just stopped by and they just received an awesome order today.

    Picked up a tri-color purple and green tip Acropora frag that is just KILLER! Under $50 w/tax for a nice 3.5"-4" piece.

    They still had some nice purple, turquouise, and green SPS frags along w/a beautiful orange encrusting monti (nodosa???). Also had some beautiful zoas, leathers, and other LPS. Worth a trip even if you're not in the area.

    You should have seen it before myself and some others cherry picked over them. But, almost all the pieces are/were really great.

    The manager/clerk (I forgot his name, but he alyways has his hat on backwards) said they ordered these colonies directly from a mariculture grower in Tonga. He said they're going to try a place in Fiji next and then rotate between the two. Hope future shipments look like this one!

    Thanks Steve. Now I can quit calling him "hey man" all the time.

    They've got a 225gal tank/canopy over there that I've had my eye on for a while. Now, if I could find the perfect argument to use on my wife to justify it.

    Hasn't that remodel been going on for like 3 years? I shouldn't say anthing, though. I've got some remodel chores around my house that I've been putting off since 2005.
