I hope this is allowed, but I just placed an order with @Vivid Aquariums about 10 minutes ago, and I wanted to create a placeholder to remind myself to post a review when the order arrives. It's my first time ever taking a chance on ordering livestock online.

Only one of them was WYSIWYG (The Yellowish Pandora Zoas,) the others were their stock photos, so we'll see how they compare.

Those are the stock pictures, but if they're even close to this, I'll be quite impressed!
 
Are those blue clove polyps ?!?!

They're probably in some way related to the clove polyps that spread like the Corona virus, but the polyps on this frag of snowflake polyps are tiny. I don't see it being an issue with it blanketing my tank.
 
I will have to come back and update this some more when I have more spare time, but I will say the following:

They shipped QUICKLY! I ordered late Tuesday night, and everything arrived Wednesday morning at 10:30am. Theyemailed and called me before shipping to confirm it would be okay for them to go ahead and ship.
Everything was packed nicely, secure, and with heat packs.

All of the corals have already opened up and had no issues acclimating to my LED's so far, with the exception of the Blue Eyed Blonde Zoas. They still seem kinda angry and don't want to open up. Everything I received looks almost exactly like their stock photos, if not better!
