They are really nice.
I feel like you have an comfort level buying from WWC.

My opinion is you're paying for a) best-in-class quarantine b) customer service c) authentic piece. The flip side is high price + tiny frags.
The reason I won't order from them is a single horrible shipping experience. Worst packing of any vendor, so little water + so much air in the bag, broken prices, etc. In hindsight, should have asked for refund, but I thought some might recover (some did).
Look forward to buying from them in person at NY RAP.
How was your packing? Cherry Corals + BSA + Unique all packed better in my experience. I probably had a one-off experience.

The packaging was great, but I felt like the separate bags could have been bigger, that would have held more water.

Random shots...
First off:
I felt like the concept of the S-400 was losing the scape theme.
I never meant it to be frags all over the BB floor.
So, I let the Blasto go and cleaning up the BB floor.
Since the clown was pouting I did buy an small bta, but it's nothing to look at.
We'll see if the Frontline debacle with nems. is over...
I can't pull the colors out with my cell phone :mad:, but the WWC corals are great.
We got an Golden Eye chalice and an tiny insane (colored) Lobo.
Here we go... ;Wacky

Well,
If you've read the S-400 build thread or tagged along:
I've always swirled 500 ml of Purigen.
We did try the small Reef Octopus bio-pellet reactor, but the Purigen would escape that reactor.
The tinker bug still lives on and I did an mod.
If you look close the tiny beads are packed up top (water pressure) and "all" of the larger beads swirl below.
So far the mod looks good, with no Purigen escaping the main reactor.
If the mod strip's the water too clean, or it's too much trouble to maintain, then it's going to be an no go.
If it's an winner mod, @Reefer Deez will ring my neck... ;Dead

How did you mod it? Did you somehow strain the beads for size?
