Their hermits and crabs are ok. I ordered corals from them once and half of them didn't make it through shipping. They used to be reefs2go. There is a reason they changed their name they do give you store credit for anything that doesn't make it with no trouble though, but I would prefer to get my corals alive the first time lol.

Okay thanks for the info. Do they do next day shipping?

Yes, and no... They ship next day air, but it always takes 4 days or so before your order is ready to ship...

I haven't ordered from them since the name change, but before that I actually had pretty good luck with what I received from them. An occassional DOA, and a lot of their CUC is really tiny/young, but on a whole a good experience. Mymain frustration was ordering somethign on Monday, and it not being shipped until Friday or Monday.

@reef051290 search for reviews on reefs2go.com

Same company just changed their name. Our local club did several orders with them and always had bad experiences.
