Efrain sent me an email yesterday letting me know that my package was on its way and gave me a tracking number.

Sure enough, my package arrived this morning. Not Efrains fault, but the box was delivered sideways. The box is CLEARLY marked "this side up" and yet Fedex ignored that completely :P In this case it didn't matter though because Efrain did a really good job in packaging.

The box was sealed tight, TWO heat packs were used and sealed to the top of the styro to make sure they didn't come in contact with the coral.

Each bag was individually wrapped a couple times and then wrapped together with other coral. The pieces I received were really good sized and some were HUGE pieces/frags. One of the coral (Crayola Plana) came in bleached but I know that's a finicky coral. I'm not looking for a refund or replacement since this shipment came to me absolutely free :)

Overall, I will be honest and say that Efrain did the best packaging job that I've ever seen so far from a vendor. It was very professional and each coral was clearly labeled and wrapped very well.

I highly recommend his service based on the professional approach to packaging and communication and size of frags.

Thanks again!

You're welcome.

The polyps started coming out immediately. The coral look really good. I'm surprised at the polyp extension and the size of the coral. These are some very healthy pieces.

Thanks again!

I'll get pics of them in a couple days. I've been sick and behind on stuff and now my wife is sick so I've got to take care of her...it's that whole "in sickness and in health" clause that is currently binding me ;) soon guys!

Ok, I took some quick pics..sorry that my pics suck. I took a few of the other coral but the polyps tend to look blurry in my pics. The green digitata came out well so we'll look at that one.

Here's one of it on my frag tank...can you spot it? :P All visible sticks are from Efrain.
Also, you can see the crayola plana that came in bleached. Efrain has offered to replace it for free on my next order which is nice considering I didn't even pay for this order :) Thanks Efrain.

Nice. The crayola plana looked sweet. It sucks that it bleached in transit. :'(
