    Default Gorgeous Caribbean order... Rics, gorgs and more!

    We've got another great order from the Caribbean coming in tomorrow.

    Expect to see:

    Several species of very nice gorgonians
    Absolutely stunning Ricordea polyps
    Lg Blue reef chromis
    black capped basslets
    Ultra colored St Thomas mushroom polyps
    snails
    crabs
    and more...

    We'll also be getting an Indo/Australian order this Thursday as well. I'll post a list later on.

    tell me how to keep St Thomas polyps happy. I had one and it said high light and high flow but it didn't seem to do well in high flow at all

    I've never seen them in 'high flow' environments while diving before. They tend to exist on protected areas within lagoonal patch reefs. I've had good luck with them in a variety of different lighting conditions. Once they are settled in, they are usually quite hardy and beautiful.

    Friday will probably be best since I'm not sure what time the order will come in. Plus, it will give everything a chance to adjust, get settled and open up.

    We prefer to do this instead of rushing things out the door. That way, you can really get a good idea of what you're getting and the stress from shipping is minimized as much as possible so we can assure you're getting the best, healthiest animals possible.

    I've got my St Thomas in shade and low flow. It did not like full light, even on the bottom. It's doing great, get's huge during the daytime. I might try to pull it into a little more light this weekend and see what it does.
