Reefer Madness frags

Just got some frags from RM. Everything people say about them is true!!! These frags are huge!! $25 with shipping included is phenomenal. It's like trading with a local reefer. Did I mention the frags are large, at least 3-4 inches.
Will definitely be buying from them again.

No pics.
I got the:
Distorted Shapes of Blue and Bluish Frag of Montipora crassituberculata
Vibrant Green Polyp with Lavender Base Frag of Montipora aequituberculata
Sweet Royal Blue Polyps with Yellow Base Frag of Montipora peltiformis
Looking at them closer I don't think they sent me the peltiformis. Looks like it may be the Plating Montipora monasteriata Frag with Fluorescent Green Polyps.
I think the pics on their site look better then the frags under my lights. Right now I only have actinics and 10K AB's running. We'll see if they color up.

Huge frags

First time ordering form reefer madness. All the colonies are as beautiful and colorful as pictured on the website and the frags are even better. I was expecting small 1-2" inch frags and was pleasantly surprised by most frags being over 3 inches and the danae is at least five inches-WOW.

I am very pleased and will definitely look forward to placing an order again in the future.

I have purchased many aquacultured sps corals from RM.
great service, quick response on email, large corals.

lets not call them "frags" though. they are smal aquacultured colonies (walt smith from Fiji?). Frags are second generation TANK raised corals, grown under tank conditions.

well what did your wife say what "reefer" means ? she might tell you something she wants you to belive and is not even true,

something she wants you to do or something like that

Its a 90.00 minimum per order. Looks like you have to spend at least 90.00 to get a good deal.

I too just received my second order. Actually there was a mix up with the first. Everything survived and is doing very well in my system, but it turned out I was missing one frag and two others that I received were the incorrect type of frag. No problem. They sent me out a replacement order-no charge and even threw in an extra nice bonus for the inconvenience. Oh and by the way I was told to keep the first ones from the mix-up.

Unmatched customer service if you ask me-

GF

I think you can have them do a Sat delivery but of course it's extra.
