Shaz Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 I was considering placing an order from farms of thesea, and was wondering if anyone has good/bad experiences to share with me before I decide to order. They seem to have good prices but I want to know how the corals are. Link to comment
yoshiod9 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 talk to birdman204 about blane...he hates him with a passion(i have a heavy dislike for blane, too). here's bird's reasons why not to...(do check out the link to RC) http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/showthread...highlight=farms Link to comment
reefboy Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 I would never order from blane! I did once & got burned. After doing some research I found this is usually the case. Corals looked nothing like pics & where near death upon arrival. Check RC & zoos-r-us. IMO I would order from Platnium, Atlantis, Seacrops..etc (you wont find any negative feedback from those).

Babycakes Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 though blane is a nice guy, i've been disappointed with each order i made through him. every bag would come with murky yucky water, not a good sign. he does give large amount of zoos and some free frags but he is not a great shipper.

Daemonfly Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I wish he had a better reputation. He's just ~2+hrs south of me and would be great to buy from (shipping wise). I have considered checking it out in person though if that was possible. Link to comment

Caesar777 Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 I hate Blane. Photoshops pics hardcore, sends sick corals (got an LPS with ALGAE on it), sends smaller frags than listed (another LPS was supposed to have "3-4 polyps", had 1 plus half of one plus a quarter of another), total jerk attitude. NOTHING redeeming about this guy. Grr. Link to comment

Reef_Mad_Man Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 "I hate Blane. Photoshops pics hardcore" FINALY SOME ONE WHO AGREES WITH ME ON THS FACT! LOL! He is a photo shopping wizard isn't he! Sends you frags of thre polyps or less of EVERYTHING, in the brown, grey or light green colorations. Absolutely NOTHING you get from him will be what he shows an actualy photo of. Link to comment
