Jeremy at Premium Aquatics

[Reefanatic67]

I called him about a month ago and told him I needed to start stocking my 7 month old 58 gallon. He took his time and ordered me a couple of sweet items for my tank. As he started to receive shipments, he would put some stuff aside for me and tell me about them. If I would tell him I was interested, he would hold it for me. Heck, he held a bi-color blenny for me for almost the entire time. Once the last piece arrived (yesterday) he shipped everything to me. Here are a couple of pics of the coral pieces I received this morning. Everything has not opened up fully yet (understandable), but you'll get the idea. I especially love the red lobo he sent me:

Red Lobophyllia

Everything was extremely well packed (triple bagged) and he prepped for heat (I live in Miami) by placing a couple of gel packs in the box (cooler). He sent it on a late shipment last night and it arrived at 9:30 this morning, so the corals did not suffer much at all. As always, I'm extremely satisfied with what I get from Jeremy, so a few thumbs up for him! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

He’s also got a sweet looking red Cynarina lacrymalis that I didn't purchase (budget reasons :( ), so if you are interested, give him a call. Here is the pic he sent me…..

looks cool, but try feeding your lobo often as it has some ressesion spots on it....:)

Nice. How orange is that frogspawn in person? Is it really orange, or more brown? How does it look under actinics?

How much did they want for the Cynarina lacrymalis?

I just went to their site...the cynarina is $130.00. They also have some great looking ORA clams.

Thanks sensei. According to my wife, the recession spots are pretty much history. While acclimating, I put a little DT Phylo in the water and let it eat. I did a direct feeding to all the corals yesterday and they are looking much better today. The candy cane still has a couple little rough spots, but it will recover nicely.

Thanks sloth. It is exactly as it appears on the pic, semi-clear tentacles with and orange hue to it. I've seen them appear browner than this one, or just simply green. This one is extremely cool and as it grows it looks much better.

The tank does not have actinics....I light it with one 250W 10k Ushio bulb. I will eventually add actinics to the tank, but not right away.

As pikey responded, it is on their website for $130.00. They also have a ton of other cool stuff that unfortunately they can't put on their cherry pick page. If you receive their weekly livestock list, you can see all the items they have. If it is not on the cherry pick site, then simply call Jeremy and he'll gladly take a shot and send it to you. That's how I got the pick for the cynarina.

Thanks everybody.....
