I have recently been bitten by the SPS bug again because my SPS tank has been doing great ever since I hooked up a Trident and DOS, so I decided it was time to place my first TSA order. I was hesitant to order from TSA in the past because we are spoiled in California and can get frags at a fraction of the cost if we wait, but I decided to treat myself for my white lab coat ceremony (passing my didactic year of PA school). All I can say is that I don't regret my decision at all!

The box came in on time in great shape.

Decided to test their parameters to determine how fast or slow I should acclimate.

The corals were all in bags with individual labels, which was a nice touch!

The polyps were out and the corals looked healthy as can be in the bags!

One was RTNing on arrival but that is part of the hobby. TSA noted the DOA and plans to cut me a new Fallen Angel frag and send in a week or two. I will update on comparable size and health of the frag once it is received.


Overall, I had a great experience and the health of the corals are among the best I have received in the 10 years that I have been doing this. Very impressed with the health of the frags that have obviously been sitting in a tank for a while. I now think it is worth it to order from them over buying the "discounted freshly cut frag", if I can afford it at the time.

THE GROUP! The photo was taken with an Iphone X with a yellow filter but no edits. (RTNed Fallen Angel on the far right)

UNTIL NEXT TIME, THANKS TSA!
