Got a nice deal from Mike @ Sexy Corals for a great anemone. We had a little confusion about the shipping date (for which he apologized profusely), but things still worked out well in the end.
With that little hiccup aside, I'm thrilled by the little 'nem that I received. It arrived in great shape without any noticeable stress or damage and has become the most eye-catching piece in my reef. It's unlike anything that any of the LFS in my city could get, and I've been asking several of them for more than two years. Sexy Corals really has some high quality stuff that is impossible to find locally, and there are several good stores nearby.
I also have to applaud Mike for encouraging buyers to donate to Rylee's medical expenses as she undergoes treatment for ALL (see details in thread here). I really try to limit my purchases to a few online vendors and hobbyists, and that small touch of class makes it easy to buy from Sexy Corals in the future. Supporting a R2R sponsor who brings attention to a good cause is definitely a win-win for all of us.
Summary:
Pays attention to customer concerns, high quality livestock, accurate photos, no pest hitchhikers (one of my hangups on buying from vendors/hobbyists), and good character. I'm looking forward to my next purchase from Sexy Corals!
