Pieces tht didn't make it in one pieces
Picture is small so it is hard to see ... did they come loose from the frag or is there damage to the corals ... You may want to call them and discuss the matter and see what they say ... looks like they were not packaged properly but if there is no damage to the corals you may just be able to glue them back to the frag holder. If you have pics of the corals maybe you can post them in a larger size ... tks

Please don't discuss this matter in a thread. Send a pm and let the seller deal with it first.

Did these come from a Hobbyist of a reseller ... ? Odd suggestion indeed they gave you but it may work depending on now small/large the pieces are.

Not to sound against online coral sellers but "Don't Do It" there is enough hobby reefers out there to sell you colonies for the price you'd pay for a 3/4 inch piece . Seriously asking $300 for a 3/4 inch piece these people are crazy, or is the people buying them the crazy ones... hmmmmmm. . .

Well lost a couple corals but its alright its not going to stop me from buying more. I'll just have to be more careful next time. Only update that I have now is the ats is working the mesh is turnin brown after only two full days and I picked up two adorable baby maroon clown fish. both have unique misbar n prettiest pair of eyes I ever seen. Cool thing bout them is they are invisible when the light are out in my tank and all I can see n white stripes dancing around. My next step will be the light. I'm going to gut out a t5 fixture and install LEDs inside while putting two t5 bulbs on the outside.
Looking forward to being able to add more corals and get this going.

well i decided what leds kit to get but havent pull the plug yet.
just remember this will be a diy which mean i can modify or add on later if it needed. these will be mounted to the old t5 fixture that i had. if u have any advice or recommendation then go ahead leave it here.

Hey dorky, sorry to hear about your first sps order for your new tank, it definitely sucks to not be happy with an order after spending a bunch of money. On your next order check out battlecorals, one of the vendors here. You won't be disappointed. I was extremely pleased with my order a few weeks back. Best shipping and packing, communication and everything. Frags are huge as well. Adam is a great guy to work with.

Thank it was the red dragon n the Ufreefer cobalt blue efflo that I lost n few crush corals. I was kinda unease about it cuz it was my first time doing it. N decided to order from online vendor n I'm actually planning on getting some corals from battlecorals after I have the light taking care of n the param stable.
Do you know why you lost the corals? Just wondering ...
Oh I see .. sorry to read it ..

Good choice man!You won't be disappointed. Even if they die a few days after delivery he will most likely replace them. I had one coral that lost some color in shipping (still looked great IMO.)and even though it was alive he told me if It died after a day or two he would replace it. I dont know of any other vendors that would do that!!
