A long, long time ago, they used to have an awesome website. They were one of the first in the business. I was tempted to order from them a bunch of times, but I had really good experiences with another vendor, and I just didn't want to take any chances. The website is a mere shadow of its' former self. Far fewer corals offered. I'm curious if anyone else knows what's up. In short, I'm just curious too; can't offer a positive or negative experience for ya.

Same here as coralnut99. I did see where there was a post about someone not having a good experience. The coral was not as pictured on the site as far as color.

There was a pretty big fuss a while back in the LPS forum about him selling the same "wysiwyg" corals on his website on ebay, same descriptions, same pictures, higher prices. The search is down but I THINK that the thread's name was something like "what makes a coral Japanese?" It's been a while, but worth a read if you're thinking about ordering there *shrugs* If the search comes back later I'll see if I can find it since I don't remember how long ago it was that the thread was unlocked.

And in my extremely limited experience some of his anemones look off. The bright magenta ones? I didn't think they came in hot pink?

Woo! It even got to working before I couldn't edit anymore ^_^

I was close on the name of the thread :P Basically he was lying about his coral, got caught and then a war started >_< And I was thinking the correct person when I was about to post that he was at the very least keyword spamming on ebay.
