Legendary Corals unboxing and review.

[Mmbra]

I recently ordered a few zoas from Legendary Corals. These are the first corals ive ever owned and are also my first online livestock purchase. I thought id add a little feedback for those of you deciding whether legendary corals is right for you.

Here's the box, was pretty warm because the weather outside was 103 and i didnt recieve it until around 3pm

Nice foil foam all around the box.

Here are my Zoas all nice and snug.

Full spread all nicely packaged and labeled.

Drip acclimating those badboys.

From left to right, Fruit Loops, Radioactive Greens, Super Saiyans.

"Blue Implosions" and Rasta Polyp that my hermit crabs knocked lose and its been closed for a few hours now

Rasta again, Fire and Ice, and Blowpop.

All in all i would say i am happy with my purchase. All the polyps opened within an hour of being in their new homes, and while the colors arent quite what they were on the website, im sure thats more due to my compact flourescent actinctic lights rather than false advertising.

The only real bummer was my "Blue implosion" frag having no blue at all, and looking pretty bland and bleached out but hey, it was $5 and is still pretty cool and the biggest polyp size.

Anyhow, thanks LC for the great service and product.

yeah if you supplement blue those zoas will look gorgeous.It's generally known that zoas only look really colourful in blue lights, and when you see amazing pictures of zoas, you can assume there's at least blue supplements. Still, those are some cool first zoas

Huge thank you for making this review for us! I'm sure that these zoas will grow out nicely in their new homes in no time. And yeah, the blue implosions is more of a light grey blue than a solid blue. It should pop a bit more under some blue lighting rather than the more white spectrum of your PCs.

What type of blue led strip would you suggest? Im currently using 2 of these 65w 10k white lights http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000256E1M?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00
and 2 of these 65w Actinctics in a 55 gallon long. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000256E1W?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00
So i think im ok on actually lighting for growth, i just want something cheap to make these guys color pop. Thanks for the help.

Also something i forgot to mention in my review, i bought all corals at 1 polyp, and most came with WAY more than that. Thanks again LC ill hit you up w another order in a couple months or so.
