Chris, just wanted to say a big "thanks" for the second shipment of frags. Everything arrived well this time, and they're in great shape. Colors look nice! :)

I also wanted to put in a good word for Chris for anyone else who is thinking about ordering his frags. When the first shipment of frags arrived, they were well packaged but due to extreme cold weather and spending part of the day on a UPS truck they didn't make it. Chris was EXTREMELY accommodating and shipped new frags out to replace the ones that didn't make it.

He's a stand-up guy and I would certainly order from him again in the future.

Thanks again, Chris! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Yes, I agree, Chris is a stand up guy!
I had a similar fate with my frags. We got hit with a real bad cold spell and the frags didn't make it. I wrote him and without even asking he offered to send me a replacement frag. I'm waiting until the spring for mine. I'm in NY and it's going to be cold here for a long while.
Thanks again Chris!

i received my frags from chris today and i am really happy with it. two frags did not make it but i think it had a lot to do with the cold snap we are having up here in new england. chris has offered to replace them for me which is extra nice of him but he had sent me a couple of extra frags which i think was more than enough to make up for the lost two. these are some of the nicest looking frags i have seen and chris is a pleasure to deal with. he is a great asset to the reefing community. thanks chris for the wonderful frags. soon my tank will be bursting with color and i have you to thank. just wanted to let people know that chris great in my book. oh ya nice tank chris (awesome actually).

Hey Chris:

I just wanted to say that all frags made it through acclimation, and are healthy, happy, and mounted.

I'd also like to commend you for your excellent packaging and the follow-up calls. Its good to know that you care enough to make sure that everyone who orders is satisfied.

I haven't had the chance to take and post pictures yet, but I try to do so tommorow.

The Purple, Green and Blue milles have visibly grown over the past few weeks. I'm still trying to find a "happy place" for the pink. The formaosa is doing well also.

Let me know when you'll have some more Tort and Leng Sy available, and we'll do it again!

Looks like Chris had a big day packing up the frags yesterday. I ordered 6 frags and received 3 average sized frags, 2 large frags, and 1 mini-colony (3"X3"). Polyps are starting to extend....

Excellent communication and packaging--better than most large online vendors.

ORA and, or depending on who you ask Cali tort. I have purchased several different torts over the last couple of years from ORA, and from individuals claiming the tort is the cali tort. They both look the same to me however... I do have a Oregon tort......but it is not ready for fragging.
