FL Ricordias & Zoanthids/Palythoas $15

My frag tank is getting full, selling them for $15 each frag.

Zoa frags are at least 10 polyps, some even more. you can see them in the pictures. A couple of the frags have 1 or 2 polyps of a different type of zoanthids

I believe Zoanthids #1 and #5 are palythoas. #1 came from reefenvy's "orange people eater" a while back.

Rics are WYSWYG, but the zoanthids in the pics are not WYSWYG. The frags are all very similar though.

pictures are taken under 2 VHOs, no actinic. Corals might change color in your tank depending on the lights you have. And cameras don't always pick up the right colors, though they look very similar to what's in my tank.

Payment will be done with paypal please.. but I don't have a business account... so I think I read it somewhere that it's no credit card? may be I'm wrong..

and shipment: I will ship out on Tuesday of next week. I can ship USPS priority in a thermos, or USPS next day. If you order 5 or more, I will pay for priority shipping.

I know zoanthids are probably ok for priority but I don't know about rics... If you're not sure about your weather, that it might be too cold or too hot, please don't request priority shipping, the corals will end up suffering and I will not be responsible for it. If your weather is not good, do overnight shipping.

Shipping costs depends on your location. message me with your zipcode to find out

cost of thermos: I will find the cheapest at wal mart, should be around $3 or less..

Message me with the type of coral and the # AND your zipcode to calculate postage please.

It looks like shipping priority is either $5.30 for 2 lbs or $7.44 for 3 lbs.

shipping over night is $18.80 for 2 lbs and $22.20 for 3lbs

yes if you get 5, I will cover priority, or if you want overnight, you'd just pay the difference

and as far as heat pack, I have to be able to find them in the stores. I'm afraid some of them might over heat the corals... especially for ricordias and in a thermos.
again, if your weather is too cold or too warm... you'd be taking the risk.

Any suggestions appreciated!

I just want to emphasize, it's kind of cold in some of your locations next tuesday. I really really recommend overnight. You'd be taking the risk of the corals dying. I will do anything you want on the shipping. If you want heat packs, I will go to the store and look for them, but I don't want them to over heat the corals and melt them.

Message me regarding shipping please.

zorics- www.kensfish.com has some good prices on heat packs and better then whats in the stores. I have used the 72 hour heat packes with great sucess. And he ships the same day he gets payment. I sent my payment to you already but if needed I could send a few bucks to cover a heat pack. Also how big was that thermos? It should be fine in there because they dont stay extremly hot too long. They get very warm when first opened and cool down as time goes on. I usually put the bags in a box or thermos and fill around them with packing peanuts or something to make it so the bags dont get flopped around during shipping and take the heat packs and wrap them with newspaper and put them on the top inside not touching the bag and seem to work great. But make sure the heat pack is loosly wrapped to provide the heat if not then they wont work. let me know opinions. Thanks

the thermos is actually pretty small: http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0...CMZZZZZZZ_.jpg

so the corals will be snug inside. so with something that small, I'm afraid that it may overheat with a 72 hr heatpack.

and if I order from him now, it wouldn't get here in time, and it would be like $3~$4 because of shipping.

If you want, I can find one locally in the stores, a small one, 24 hrs I think... like $1? $2? not sure

yeah that would be fine...some toe warmers or somethine but its not too big of a concern because i know even once the heat pack goes out they will survive.Zoas are very hardy.At least what i have came across latley with shipments.

whats ur zipcode?

just curious how many days in shipping. I had some come from AL and took 3 days to get them priority mail and they were fine. The new yorkers are the ones that would sacrifice the life of them with priority mail from you because thats another day or 2 from me. The guy I got them zoas from in AL said he got some torch, button polyps from NY and they took 5 days and then he sent me the torch in trade and torch looked fine. So I think things are hardier then we think.unlike fish
