I just received my 12-pack sps from Dr Mac and a beautiful 2.5 inch blue crocea. I was expecting the frags to be unmounted like they said on the site. I got all of them mounted and have encrusted on a plastic base. I also got a bonus frag that was unmounted. Most of the frags had their polyps out after a few minutes of placement in the rocks. I am very impressed with the frags and the ultra crocea ($29.99). Most of the frags are generous (big). I am sold on Dr Mac, I will never try other sites for frags again. Pacific East surpassed my expectations. Thanks for the great transaction and will order from you again.

Do you have any pics of the frags?

I will take pics tomorrow, I just finished gluing the plugs on the rock and the lights went off. However, I just took a shot of one particular frag that just caught my eyes. It has a nice yellow polyps and purple tips. I hope it keeps the yellow color of the polyps because I haven't seen a yellow sps polyps before.

Here are the frags.
There are 2 in this pic, the smaller ones in the front are from live aquaria, $29.99 and 34.99 each. The ones from Dr Mac are the two mounted on plastic plugs. The one on the left is a good 3 inches long, the one in the back is a little shorter, maybe 2.5 inches.

Do not expect lots of colors on frags that are encrusted. You can see lots of nice colors from frags that come from wild colonies (except from a fellow reefer) but the success rate from them is dismal and they brown out anyway most of the time, IME. The good thing about frags from Dr Mac is that they have been encrusting and had almost gone through the brown out phase. So I do not expect more browning from them. The ones that have already colored up will demand higher prices. I like having these frags because they turn up surprising sometimes. I will give you example later:D
