Moved to vendor feedback.

I have never ordered from them and have never read a good experience from anyone who has. I was told the con part of their name fits them well. ;)

Thanks Mike, I have a red flatworm out break & was looking to acquire some blue velvet nudi's, I can't find them anywhere but there but have never dealt with them & with those nudi's being so delicate & not guaranteed I wanted to research the vendor 1st.......looks like I'll be doing some major siphoning til my LFS can get some in....any other experiences/feedback welcome......

Do you have any wrasse? Six lines, radius, melanurus, seagrass are a few off my head that like to keep flatworms in check.

I have a leopard in there, haven't seen him show any interest at all in the flatworms & I don't want to add another species & upset the balance, plus these things are really starting to multiply quite rapidly.......well, 2 years in & my 1st real "issue" could be worse I guess(or at leat that's what I'm going to tell myself anyway!!)

That is exactly what I've heard also.

I have read both good & bad, was hoping to hear from someone who has actually dealt with them.......

Don't do it - One bad thing should be more than enough to deter you: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Aquacon+experience+%2B+reef+central

If you have Planaria use Flat Worm Exit.

Thought about using flatworm exit but I have a lot of flatworms, a lot of LR & there's no way I'd be able to siphon them out fast enough(at least I don't think so) to avoid a major toxin release in my tank...I am trying to go au naturale!! But from the looks of it I may have to just use it.........

I would advise you to NOT buy from this vendor. When I was new to purchasing online I bought a few things from them. Aside from the livestock issues I had they charged me out the you know what for shipping . . . and I'm in Florida.

Just walk away:)
