I received my sps pack today and unfortunately there were 2 doa and at least 4 that started rtning within a few hours.
I believe it was due to the ice pack because the water was pretty cold. I immediately noticed 2 were doa, but I drip acclimated for 20 min and used a Coral Revive dip. My lights were off for an hour to allow them to acclimate to my tank. Unfortunately, I noticed that there were some major issues a few hours after I turned my lights on. If it was only 2 frags I could handle it,but 4 more started rtning at the base.
Nick did throw in 2 extra frags because he had to ship them a week later. His packaging of the coals were excellent. I pm'd him 3 times and haven't heard back. I also sent some pics within 2 hours of receiving the package. My wifes camera sucks, so they were a little blurry. Anyways, it sucks because I was really looking forward to my new corals. The ones that survived look great though. I'll post again once I hear back from Nick.
