cornbread coral very unhappy with them

[Camaro Show Corals]

How is possible Cornbread corals meets you local when the website clearly states you cannot pick up any purchase locally if you live nearby? If Cornbread Corals make exceptions they should have made some for (Camaro).

Thanks, but I’d never buy from them again wasted 300 dollars for coral that lasted a week

All I did was message him tell him I lived down the street and that's it. And we agreed to a pick up spot

I’m having a problem with Cornbread corals right now. I bought a WWC Bounce and paid top dollar because it looked AMAZING in the picture. What I received looked nothing like the picture. I emailed him and he said that the one I bought had healed funny and he sent a substitute. It was a WYSIWYG listing that specifically states you get the frag in the first photo. I doubt he still even has that frag. After all this, I see that he reposted the same frag again with the same picture. I think he’s just taking peoples money and sending them different corals that what’s pictured. I am beyond ticked.

that is not right. He should’ve Atleast given you credit for a possible next order... sounds like neither of you want that at this point. I’ve ordered from Rich many times. He, especially when he feels Frag sold too cheap on eBay will not be so giving if you encounter a loss. I know first hand, had to pay for a replacement bloodshot Krak when original melted very quickly. He said I stole it at what I paid @ ebay auction, that he sells them for far more normally.. um..... Sooo. It’s a dang eBay auction, if I got for good deal should not impact whether it’s replaced or not. Thought that was rather uncool. On most other orders, all went well and still have those Teeny tiny nubs cooking, most r real deal funk. Sorry u had a bad experience. I’ve had too many to recollect at this point. Literally thousands in dead corals arrived. Almost all due to fedex delays.

Must say that really puts me off buying from him every again. Im a local so I can simply meet up with him. But that sounds really scummy of him @thecamaroshow

Sounds sketch to me...

I am completely new but the few online orders I have placed have been great. I can see wanting to buy local but to buy from a reputable online source for $30-$40 shipping seems well worth it to me

they act so kind till they get your money

Cornbred has a long history of questionable sales tactics. His pics are never accurate, his frag sizes are laughable, and he's way over priced. Steer clear

I have for sure encountered that very issue w him as well. Mine was for a wysiwyg Favia I believe it was the tropic thunder favia. I received totally different Frag, Wayy smaller and then saw the same wysiwyg the following week. Luckily for me it has grown to be pretty large and looks insane. Still was a pretty shady deal. He has for the most part done me right so I don’t hate. Just need peeps to call him out when he does wrong. Shouldn’t have too. I know. It is what it is. I’m sure he’s ticked off many peeps thru the years.

Cornbread sells the smallest nubs of nubs and thinks they are good size. I’ve never even seen a half inch frag from them, the guy is a goof I called and complained and he said well they live in our tanks so that’s your issue buddy do you even know how to keep coral. And I said buddy I’ve been keeping coral for 3 years and acros for the same I have great luck with my acros and don’t lose many. I suggest you stop ripping people off and give them Frags that will survive that are about a 1 inch, and he got mad and hung up.




I REPEAT DO NOT BUY FROM CORNBREAD CORALS THEY HAVE APRIGHT PRICES AND THY DO EBAY AUCTIONS AND THEY ARE NOT WJAY THEY SAY THEY SAY A 1/2 to a inch they there nubs. So do not buy from them!!!

I have always heard cornbread has had a pretty good reputation so I may not have the correct perception. But it's funny you said you have been keeping corals for 3 years to them yet you started a build thread in March saying you were starting your first ever saltwater tank. I usually dont respond to these kind of threads but people do not understand the impact of a negative review will have on someone's business when they don't have the credibility to back up their claims and act quite unprofessional about it. Just my $0.02

Even though the frags are knobs and most likely will not get what was in picture I will still buy from him because the corals still look fantastic and you can get them for cheap price on ebay even though usually knobs. He's even givin me free shipping on a couple orders that were only $150. Now I'm not saying I wasn't really mad when I ordered my PPC Acro from him That was supposed to be buyer gets frag in first picture and obviously was not but Coral has grown and looks freaking sweet so still happy

I just wanted to drop in and say that we resolved the matter but still waiting for the partial refund.

I see I wasn’t the only one with the same comment from him. I’ve also had the same problem, a WYSIWYG should be exactly that. If it’s not good then it should be refunded in total and you should be contacted immediately, not sent a diff frag with’ I sent you one that is better than pictured’. I had spent a lot with CB previously. Had and previously, no more.
