Maybe its just because im tired but they do look very similar to Tuna's beside the skirts being a different color.

Those are nice but not Armageddons. The ones that were pictured in that ebay auction were the real deal. I know because they used my photo to sell!

Revhtree your right mine are the Armageddons II

Looks like there was some honest misunderstanding with my pic being used so no harm done here. Unless yours are not the real deal.

well I haven't heard from seller yet so im assuming its a fake listing

I know them chicks and they got them from the same guy I did. If they send you the right ones they will be real lol. I haven't seen them personally and I'm not vouching for them.

Hello all! I see you've been having a good time while I was away lol. My sincere thanks to Joshporksandwich for helping me clear this mess!

To clarify and hopefully clear the air, the auction is/was real. It wasn't a scam or a joke and the auction winner will receive his frag.

While my colony is not as robust as Josh's they do indeed come from the same person. It was that person who provided me with the picture posted in the auction. I obtained his permission prior to posting the auction, thinking the picture was his. Since the picture looked exactly as the frag I was selling, I decided to use it. I had no idea that this was Rev's picture that had been copied without his consent. I have written to both Rev & the auction winner explaining all of this. It truly was a misunderstanding of sorts and Reefchicks meant no disrespect or intent to defraud. The delay in response stemmed from me being out of town in an area where I had no internet service.
