First order from Battlecorals

ChrisQ0904 · Oct 30, 2018

I just received my first coral order from Adam. Without getting into too much detail I informed him of a specific piece I was interested in and the total amount I was willing to spend and told him to do what he could for the other pieces.

I honestly wasnt thinking of much for the others to be completely honest just because I figured I was already pretty close to my limit. But oh man!! Adam did not disappoint at all, some of the pieces even had great polyp extension inside of the bag. I honestly feel like a little kid on Christmas.

I'll put some cellphone shots of the bags for now. The water was a little cold so I put them in the tank right away to temp acclimate. I'll see if I'll whip out the DSLR later once they are glued down.

Nice pack. Adam does not disappoint!

Did he include a heat pack, I have been struggling deciding if to include one or not this time of year.

So the addiction begins - sort of like trying to eat one chip - guarantee you’ll be back

Great pack thanks for sharing

Not on this shipment, I live in FL so we are not that cold as compared to the rest of the U.S.

Thanks for the post! Glad they got on ok. I opted for the 1' walled styro in lieu of a heat pack. Shipping to FL from chilly WI can be tricky sometimes, and i always lean towards letting them get cooler, than any chance they could over heat. Frags seem far more resistant to cooler temps than warm/hot ones for sure in my experience. for what its worth

Very nice pack! Can't wait to get another pack. Just plumbed a frag tank into my display last night. Now I'm ready for more!

Eagerly anticipating tank pics.

Im just a couple years in this hobby and loved the softies and lps, not so much sps though. Im planning my winter 125g build and had my plans to order some more lps in January. Until I checked out Battlecorals. Adam has some frickin nice corals. I want sps now. Now I have a love/hate relationship with battlecorals because I had to change my idea of lighting and get more t5s and a set of 360we. There goes the budget... dang you battlecorals!

Well, my battery wasn't fully charged and was only able to snap a few shots. I am not a great photographer so I apologize for the quality of the pictures in advanced.
