Recently things have not been very good. I won't go into details but I was more sad then I've ever been and was close to the edge. I was in my room on my phone when I saw that I won a zoa garden from planet zoa. I notified Travis (planet zoa) that I would be sending over the money for shipping. When I found out I won I was in tears because I saw it as a sign that things are getting better. Not only did he provide amazing customer service but he also talked to me about everything that has happened to me and gave me advice for when I'm out of high school. I received the zoas today and I'm amazed at how many there are. I sent the shipping payment yesterday at noon and now I'm acclimating the corals. I've never purchased online and I will surely only be ordering online from now on. Planet zoa has the best coral and best prices IMO. They are the only site I will order from. The zoas are acclimating and opening and I can already tell they are beauties. The packaging was fantastic. They were in a sea of foam peanuts in a bag inside of a plastic cup with a screw on lid in side of another bag in a styrofoam box in a cardboard box. Not only is Travis a great supplier, he is also a great person. Thank you Travis
Here are the corals acclimating. I will post a picture when they're open

They are the brightest zoas I've ever seen. Planet zoa is the only site that will get any of my business. The website is planetzoa.com you have to register for an account to see their inventory. And believe me they have a lot. Everything is priced extremely fairly, no pictures show how bright these guys really are.

Thanks for the great review, Hayden. It was very serendipitous that my contest came along at just the right time. I can't tell you how many times this forum and all the amazing people here have brightened my day!

BTW, if you decide to order from one of the other vendors who support R2R, I won't hold it against you!

Which one did you win? I won zoa garden B, and it's coming home next week :) I can hardly wait. I've gotten z's n p's from Travis before, and they have always been awesome! Planet Zoa rocks all the way around!

It sounds like a sign to me. A sign that things are turning around for you.

Wish my camera would show their real colors. They're a much deeper red and brighter greens.

I honestly did not think zoas could get this bright. They're by far my favorite on the garden.

my reef tank has helped me get through the depression from having kidney failure sooo much. I'm 30 now and it's been 5 years that I honestly don't think I would have made it through with out my tank. It's reminded me the value of creating something so beautiful that it takes your mind away, and how good it is to grow plants or keep pets. Good luck with your reefing and remember tomorrow is always a new day.

Travis is truly a class act and bar none the best vendor I have ever ordered from. He is patient, believes in communicating, and has some of the best looking zoas I have ever seen. Glad his contest came around to help you keep your chin up.

Wow, this thread gets more inspiring every day!

Who knew that a hobby could bring so much to the table. Sorry about sounding like a TOTAL CHEESE-BALL, but I really am lucky. Not only do I have a friggin coral reef in my house, I get to grow/sell something that Im absolutely jazzed about, the customers are super-cool, and they shower you with compliments every chance they get!

Er...I mean...dont try to become a vendor because it's like...totally a drag! :)

I placed my first order with Planet Zoa today. Can't wait to see them in my tank! I chose to go with Planet Zoa after finding this thread and then seeing the awesome, and very fairly priced inventory on their website.
