Hi,
After seeing a bunch of recommendations for Aqua SD and chalices, I placed a large (for me) order. In included chalice, favia, and acros. After two weeks the corals all still look great and are starting to grow.
The email communication and shipping were great. Everything arrived very well packaged. I thought I got a lot of coral for the money.
I received several free corals. The free favia is one of my favorites.
Most of the frags were larger than I thought. A couple were a little smaller, but in no way misrepresented on their site.
They take the photos under heavy blues. The colors match almost exactly when my blues are running in the evening (radion with AB+ program)
The only down side were the pests. I cut all corals off the frag plugs, inspect, and do a bayern dip.
The frag plugs had different algae, one in particular had a lot of bubble algae.
Inspection found: vermitied snails, other tube snails, small crustaceans, bristle worm. There was an unknown blob of something alive. After they were remounted and in the tank two had aptaisia.
I would buy from them again, but be warned about the potential pests.
