[Greg9871]

ok the things i got:

[Jrmass]

#574 is a Trachyphyllia Geoffroyi
and the first 2 pictures are a maze brain... Definately a nice looking color though... I can't wait to see what it looks like when it's just the moonlights.. I want to know if it glows or not.

I ordered Larges on both pieces (the Trach might have been a Medium I can't remember).

pic #574 that was one of those that I was talking to you about getting. Did they class that as a lybo or a welso by chance? and what size did you order? Yeah I wish I ordered that but then again where would it go.

Looks nice.

yall done a great job on keepin this order together and making things as smooth as possible......thank you........

[condiman]

I know that not everything came in but we all knew that from the start. We had a few issues along the way and now we know more about whats going on. so in the future it will be much much smoother and I hope we will be able to do this again. Thank you all for sticking threw this.

Looking forward to getting some clams!

[Afish4u]

lol I think I shall have cash for the next one. It'll be after the holidays

[condiman]

I am thinking it is going to be around the second week of January when the order will go out. I am going to post up soon to get things rolling.

[Jrmass]

Depending on the list I will order again... The stuff we got from this Kupang list was terrific don't get me wrong (and the piece sizes BLEW ME AWAY *as well as everyone else as far as I could tell*) but, the shipping on it was very high just due to the pieces being HEAVY corals... If we were to get smaller pieces shipping would be quite a bit cheaper... and as far as pick-up went... I got to meet at one of Brad's clients so I even got to see one of the tanks he maintains so it was kind of a neat place to meet (and an even better place to split stuff up as we had a computer literally 3' from our boxes lol)

my cleaner shrimp was pretty much dod one tang looked ruff died early today coral bandit disappeared think he croaked last tang looks like he might make it well see think may corals next time to much stress for fish didnt get them till late last nite

[Maland]

may come visit u matt on mon do have any shrimp and some good power heads

[condiman]

I think the banded shrimp died from your wifes driving Lol I know when DJ looked at it at cranes it was alive and kickn and even when it let his house he said. But I do agree it did take to long for it to get to your tank. If there was anyway quicker I would have done it that way.

Don't know if it was related, but a slow drip to acclimate shrimp (and fish) is important, especially after a long trip. They put charcoal flakes in the bags to help absorb nasties, but the water tends to get nasty and need a good 30-60 minutes to fully adjust...at least that's my experience. Corals? I did a treatment dip for 5-6 minutes to help ensure they didn't have any nasties then into the tank they went!

[OLDETOWNENORTHPETS]

I have plenty of cleaner and peppermint.

[Jrmass]

typically I drip acclimate everything... (and did with a few of the items that I bought) but, most of them just had the water fully removed and placed into the tank as I figured that with as long of a trip as it was I was just better off getting them into a stable environment. (probably was just me being lazy... but, I was really tired at the end of the day).
