Sweet, what did you order?  I have always liked the looks of his sps corals.

Only things I really asked for were colors... red, green, blue. I also mentioned I like shaggy. I sent him a pic of my tank and listed some of the things I have and purchased from him previously.

Yes I was very pleased with this one. I was only expecting 3 or 4 frags, so when I got 7 I was blown away! Then when I started looking at the size of each frag I was even more pleased. So many online vendors are selling nubs of coral for outrageous prices. Two out of the seven may be considered smaller (~.5"), but they are entrusting and look good. Everything else has multiple branches, and the one could probably be considered a mini colony. I think I made out!

Lucky dog! Some of those frags are nicely encrusted. The one looks like a Monti...is it?

I believe it is a stylophora. I will have to pull out the DSLR and try and get some good pictures. It's hard to see some of the color from the cell phone pics.

I'm starting to get more into sps and these look amazingly well packaged handled grown.. everything! Was a shipment like this outrageously high?  That's the only thing slowing me down is the price vs care level I have a few which are doing great so im ready to add more would you recommend battle corals price/size?

Adam is very good to work with, and will take care of you. You have to figure in the cost of shipping. I have ordered as little as $125 shipped (4 or 5 frags). I splurged on this pack and spent some of my lunch money for the next few weeks. I would either message him on R2R or email him from his website, and just tell him what your interested in and that you new to sps. He will hook you up.
