Goniopora

Just got this goni frag in the mail today. And things don't look too promising for it. Not much flesh left. Any words of advice? Or input on whether there's still hope or not? Thanks in advance!

That thing's a goner, from how clean the frag plug is my guess is it was cut right before shipping and not given much time to heal.

+1, for sure a fresh cut coral.

+2 with the caveat that if you see anything like this from them again that you should never order from them again.

Apparently these guys run a chop shop.

Yea, I'm never buying from them again. I actually got this from the store credit I got from them with the previous frag I purchased.. Definitely not a good place to buy from!

That's not a frag! Frags of goniopra are between 5-10cm

And you should tell us who "them" are so we can avoid as well.
That frag was pathetic.

Sorry, they are "Rainbow Aquatics Lab".

If you could post about it in the Vendor Experiences forum it could help other people have experiences like yours. Always good to know which vendors to avoid...
