Mike is the guy I ordered my LED from. I've got free shipping for this order. I posted it in the group buy so if you want anything from him let me know. He has a ridiculous aussie plate coral right now. He has really nice and very cheap acan frags. Only downside usually is the shipping from Denver and is expensive... but like I said... free shipping on this one.

Great. If you decide to pick anything up let me know. I can hold it until you're ready to pick it up too.

Almost ordered some more from Mike... but ended up getting some reefpets.com stuff off of his ebay auctions.

Good luck on the ebay auctions dude, I been there done that, wasted my time, those guys go crazy at the end and end up paying more for a frag than they could have bought a colony for, just be careful.

Re: Ordering a Frag Pack
Thanks for the advise. I'm being pretty careful. I'm actually not even going to be on the computer during the end. I'm just putting in the maximum amount that I would consider to be a good deal for a handful of them and see what happens. If I get 1, I'll raise my bids on a few more because the shipping will be so cheap.

Re: Ordering a Frag Pack
Grabbing a Meteor Shower from reefkoi.com as well. Mike is making a trip to reefkoi for me (he lives close to him) and picking me up a few things and shipping it with my stuff. If you guys want anything from www.reefkoi.com let me know and I'll have Mike pick yours up and ship it as well. Just let me know pretty soon... he'll likely head over there today or tomorrow.
Here's the Meteor Shower:
And.... I'm DONE! lol.

Re: Ordering a Frag Pack
I'm ready for pics! I went back and forth on a meteor shower on my last order and ended up not getting it. I'll be interested to see how yours does.

Re: Ordering a Frag Pack
I should have mentioned. Reefkoi was out of town, so if I wanted the meteor shower I had to wait until Friday to get that shipment... which is fine. :-) I'll wait two days for the meteor shower.
So this shipment is the reefpets order. Here's a pic while I was drip acclimating them. The frags were shipped very well. Each frag was bagged separate, double bagged and sealed (not rubber banded or tied). Each of those was then in a bag, which was in a Styrofoam container which perfectly fit into the box. Reefpets does great shipping.
Here are pics of each frag in my system. The dendro was opening up while I was drip acclimating. I dropped some brine around these guys and the dendro seems to have opened up fully already. The duncan is opening slowly, but is definitely opening. Favia and war coral both opened mouths as well. I'm leaving my tank lights off until this evening... so these pics are with no tank lights on. Just natural room lighting.

Only an hour or so later. The duncan is open as well. War coral and favia showing their tentacles. Looking good. *thumbs up*
