That's a nice price for the frogspawn

[Reygan2]

Agreed. I think he's doing a really nice job. I wish I had the courage to stock like that. Interesting thread.

That is. My LFS sells them for $35 a frag.

It's a big mess. I placed an order around the beginning of Feb. They sent that order and it was ok, but they substituted the blue mushroom I ordered for a ricordea without letting me know. The zoas they sent were not as described. One actually died (the only coral I've lost yet) and the other has just started to recover now that I've removed most of the hair algae that came with it. Thankfully the purple whip and the green mushrooms lived. They were nice enough to give me a credit for substituting the blue mushroom and I reordered it, but it's been a nightmare trying to get it. For a month now they have continuously delayed shipping. I've read that it's hit and miss with them. That's pretty much how I see it as well. They emailed a shipping notification yesterday, and a cancellation today, so I'm fed up atm. From now own I'll pay a little more for corals from my lfs. They look 10x better anyway.

Yeah I've heard others with similar stories about r2g. I only order from LA/divers den or PEA for corals, or other hobbyists. Hope everything works out

[10gal_nano]

Me too. I should have researched reviews more.

I've heard good reviews too though

What is PEA?

[BigRedsReefs10]

Pacific east aquaculture, it's a website/company

Yep. Btw, you won't find anything but glowing reviews on their website. Obviously they don't post anything negative at all. And I should mention that it typically takes a week to get a response from them via email if you're lucky, and just forget about calling. Ok, I'll stop now lol.
