Bubba's SPS Journey
Same! Glad you feel that way too Bubba. His coral photos are more artistic renditions then actual photos... They are liberal in the saturation and color manipulations from those that are familiar with Lightroom and Photoshop offerings. [emoji23]
Makes great pics for Instagram for followers but not realistic for buyers expectations of what they'll actually receive. Just my opinion.

Once you start using lightroom it's very easy to see what others do to pics. Things start sticking out like a sore thumb.
I am glad you were happy with what you got from him because that is the question I use to wonder about his customers. Until he changes his pics I just can't be one of them.

Totally understand. He grows under 50/50 coral+ and blue+ with Reefbrites. Pretty sure most of his pics are just with the reefbrites on. We’ve bought A LOT of corals over the years from pretty much every big vendor to all the “big dogs” on the sps marketplace page and I can tell you, his coral colors are incredible, just like Big E’s, they are fully saturated. He really just needs to take photos with the T5’s instead of the Reefbrites.

Yeah it's his pics that kill it for me. If he took them under all his lights like Big E does, I would order from him but with his current pics it's hard to tell what my coral will truly look like.

how about his pink cadillac picture
I thought the SAME thing. Should be called the pimped out caddy with that shopped image.

For those who don't know there is a coral grow out contest and this is my frag entry this month
Here is a mop that should help with the drool.
You got to up your coral growing game, haha. This thing is growing so fast I am going to have to frag it before the year is up...
Aw, very kind of you! Thanks for all the "likes" also.

lol I think you could frag it and still win the grow out contest. You might as well start picking your frag pack out at this rate

Hey Bubba check with Shannon Mcdonald for the RRC JD. I got mine from him for a reasonable price. His came from Thinh.
Also another wish list coral might be the Elegant Corals Valentina. I'm getting a frag of this in about 2 weeks, but Julian rarely cuts these. If I can geti it to grow, maybe we could do some trading.

He seems to have some really nice corals. Julian is who I got my MattV Rainbow Envy from

I've had it for about 2 months. It's been really slow going, but I had an issue with a rusted magnet that caused a setback with all of my frags. I resolved that and things are starting to take off so hopefully it will join the party soon. Post a pic of yours when you get it. Looking forward to seeing it.
