dweakl01 Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Package arrived. Corals are very cold, but seem to have held up well, thanks Bill. I got a green hammer with about 4 heads and a mushroom. They should look nice once they've become acclimated to the tank. Thanks again, Bill! Link to comment

Atlantis Reef Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 Nice talking to you Don!! As I said I will make this right!!! Link to comment
BustytheSnowMaam Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 JP- I took some pics today, but my kids had a snow day and I haven't had a chance to upload yet, but will do soon. The armor of God zoas are really sharp! Tasha PS- Everyone else- if you use UPS or FedEx and your package got mislaid, be sure to ask for your money back for the shipping. If the package doesn't make it due to weather (which is beyond their control), they won't refund you, but if it's because of their mistake they will. They won't reimburse for the corals of course, but at least you'll get your shipping money back. If you use a pack-and-ship to send, FedEx or UPS will credit the pack-and-ship back directly and they in turn can credit you. The pack-and-ship will have a record of everything and should be able to handle it for you. This has been my experience. Link to comment
varanus37 Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 +1 to what Tash said. That is exactly what is happening with me. UPS store has filed a claim and I will get my money back from them directly. Darin- That's not just one shroom! There are at least 4 babies under and around it that I counted before I sent it. That's why I chose that one. Plus I like that branch-type rock it's on. Makes it easier to stick in rockwork I think. Those shrooms have done really well for me and those 4 babies should grow up in no time. Watch out for that hammer. It has been splitting quickly for me and sometimes touches other corals if I don't check it regularly. Good luck with them both. If next swap is the same amount of time in between as the last two you should be able to send frags of those on to someone else. That's the hope anyway. Bill Link to comment

I didn't realize there were some other shrooms under there. I'm pretty impressed at how well they held up, even with the extra day in transit. Link to comment
wtfe Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 thanks again to shivametimbas for my new SPS fetish! from lemons to lemonade: (and a bit pissed from being out of water...) Link to comment
Weetabix7 Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 thanks again to shivametimbas for my new SPS fetish! from lemons to lemonade: (and a bit pissed from being out of water...) NIIICE!! What's that insanely neon coral in the background of your pics? Whatever it is, I want some! Link to comment
wtfe Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 NIIICE!!What's that insanely neon coral in the background of your pics? Whatever it is, I want some! it's a (recovering?) red goniopora. i took a little time off from being a diligent caregiver and it's receded a bit. lately, i've been targeting mashed up cyclopeeze and oyster eggs and it seems to be feeling a little better. it'll be a year in my tank in may.

jpndave Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 NIIICE!!What's that insanely neon coral in the background of your pics? Whatever it is, I want some! Me Too! Update: The heat packs lasted until the next morning though at a diminished output. So, a little less than the 30+hrs but some could have been used up during the two day transit. The large rics are doing great. The small ric (my favorite of the two) hasn't opened up but is still showing color. The zoas haven't opened but are extending this morning. We'll see what they do at lights on. Elegance is still the same, partially extended. I'm anxiously awating photos Tasha! The AoG really is a nice piece. I'm interested in your perceptions on the others, particularly the Pipe Organ. Has the pipe opened yet? It gets much more impressive as it grows. I really like the dreamweavers also. A lot of people like the rainbows, but they're not my favorite. Here are links to where the AoG, Rainbow and Dreamweaver were purchased. https://reefer.powweb.com/catalog/product_i...c8bf881a49829e7 https://reefer.powweb.com/catalog/product_i...c8bf881a49829e7 https://reefer.powweb.com/catalog/product_i...c8bf881a49829e7 Jared Butler is a local club member and great to work with. If you are interested in anything, It might be better to contact him directly. I can get you his direct contact information. He has some incredible pieces. I am getting a frag of this: http://www.thecoraloasis.com/index2.html from him soon along with a bunch of others. I can't wait! I had the Armageddons but they didn't make the move to this tank. Jared has another frag for me. I REALLY like that piece, even more than the AoG. My favorite zoas/palys that I have (or had until I get the armageddons again) would be Purple People Eaters (documented one step off of Perun, the real deal, my pride and joy of the tank, well, zoa/palys anyway), Armageddon, AoG, Dreamweavers, Spidermans, Rainbow (In that order). I would have sent frags of a couple of the others but they aren't big enough to frag yet. Future swaps! I have been doing more sps as of late and will shift that direction, only so much real estate in a nano! I'm sure a lot of pieces will end up evicted over time. Sorry, got a little sidetracked there!

arwndsh Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 And the final tracking number is for: BibleSue USPS EQ356348894US Thanks for being so patient. A surprise is included for you. Link to comment
BustytheSnowMaam Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Hey JP- Sorry I'm such a slowpost, I've had a busy start to my week. I'll get those pics up. Link to comment
jpndave Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Hey JP- Sorry I'm such a slowpost, I've had a busy start to my week. I'll get those pics up. I hope everything is doing ok. Have they opened up and colored up for you? Link to comment
BustytheSnowMaam Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I hope everything is doing ok. Have they opened up and colored up for you? They have, they're doing great! My problem is I need to move a few things and scrape glass to get some good pics and I haven't gotten around to it yet. I did take some pics one evening and when I uploaded them they were blurry (looked fine on the image viewer of the camera). I have a few hours free tomorrow morning and hopefully I'll get to it after I get my bills paid. Link to comment

I will post a pic of the pipe organ when it's not having a bad day! That's great! Everything looks healthy and happy. The AoG really is a nice piece. The pipe organ will be a favorite when it grows out. Looks really cool in the flow when it is open and happy. Link to comment
