Only speaking of the LOA, which I know them personally, they simply do not know how to take pics and are doing the best they can with that. He I can guarantee has no intention on deceiving.
No worries. on the deviation. I understand what you are saying. I agree with there being a lot of shady vendors, Corn Bread is a great example. DK how he is still in business and able to sell for what he does. Aqua SD is also a chop shop. There are many bad characters in this hobby, but LOA is not one of them.

Aqua sd is a chop shop? They are, or used to be before the indo shut down, one of the best vendors for getting nice wild stuff. A ton of their frags are sold with a fully encrusted base, sometimes one will be kinda fresh but I would not call them a chop shop. Mr. coral was a chop shop, aqua sd not so much.
Why doesn’t loa sell on something other than facebook if their stuff is so nice? I would love to see what they offer but don’t have Facebook.

Your question regarding LOA would be a question for them to answer. SPS can take 1-2 months to show fairly good encrusting in a solid system, 2 weeks which is what most people give for a standard heal time before shipping can show encrusting as well. What, "reputable" vendors claim to do is give wild colonies 6 months to 1 year to acclimate to tank life and settle regarding coloration. How often does this happen, I would sadly say well less than we are lead to believe.

I definitely would double check with the seller, that looks far different from any Sun God I have seen. Looks like a whole different species, imo

 

[joseserrano]

Was informed that it is the wwc sun god, so yeah.

Not to cause trouble. But I have seen the sun god and your piece looks different

unfortunately that is the consensus.

I'm horrible with all the goofy names and such, but looked up the sun god in google images to see what it looks like. I wouldn't say it looks like a different species, I will say it looks a lot more like a shortcake. Still not a bad looking coral even if it is. Also a nice sized frag at that.
