Battlebox and Boombox

dragon99 · Jun 27, 2018

So I might have had a bit of pent up desire. I haven't purchased frags since last August.

The battlebox was the goal. A big splurge after the drought and I managed to catch a sale! I wasn't even sure Adam knew the word

Then Matt had to go and throw out a deal on a mystery pack. So I figured, since I had the day off anyway, why not get another

Today was a good day. Going to share the spoils with a fellow reefer.

Now that's a great FedEx day!

Looking forward to pics of them in the tank!

Very nice! I received my first battle box this past Saturday.

And everything's in the tank. Never felt more like a kid in a candy store. Light's will be up in a couple hours.

Nice score! I’ve ordered from both Battlecorals and Boom Corals recently for the first time. Couldn’t be happier with the quality of frags and customer service each of them provided. They’re both top notch! Now I feel silly that I never ordered from them sooner.;Facepalm

Nice packs! Can't wait to see pics of them in the tank.

The boom box. Not including the Kung Pow (I wish). I just can't decide where to place it, so it's still on the frag rack.

Boom's Unicorn snot, Upscales microlados, Garf bonsai, Boomberry
kung pow, FF red robin stag, Boom's blueberry stag, ORA Scripts Green Tip Stag

Edit:
and I almost forgot this guy because it was on the other rack, purple tort

Great stuff!!

PS. to be clear, since the term boombox is a bit derivative, I do not call mine boombox. @dragon99 is just being creative and came up with that.

I havent tried these two yet, I have only ordered from WWC at the moment. I can see a "boom box" and a battle box in my future though, nice sticks!

Can you be more specific on which box you bought. I know that Battle offers different number for different prices and says that the higher priced ones that are chosen to have less frags are better frags.

That was a $500 battlebox with 10 frags

Either of these guys is on a different level than WWC... less hype and more results. If you were happy with WWC, then you will likely be even happier with [Boom,Battle]Corals.

I second this statement! Battlecorals is my go to for sure!

Still need to order from Boom corals. Tried a couple months back or so, but he never got back to me the next day like he said he would. So, I ordered a Battlebox instead

WWC are good people. Boutique prices, but they have sales throughout the year.

I’m sorry that’s not something I ever want to happen! I’m sorry if I missed your message or didn’t get back.

No worries. I'll order a pack once this heat wave breaks.

I love me some WWC. Personally their standard prices on their website can be high for certain items, but I"ve won some quality pieces via their eBay auctions, and live sales at great prices. Moving forward I could see myself maybe scoring one of their acro's in an auction or livesale, but I think my SPS will be bought from @Battlecorals , and leave my LPS and Zoa's coming from @WWC
