Corals look decent for wild fresh cut frags, this is my second order w/him. No complaints.
Yea I guess I got lucky the box was wet, I wonder if that's what was holding it up?

Hmm not of the most recent batch, but here are some of the last batch. I had a few DOA's last time, which is why I did another order so I could my credits. The key thing to remember with Mrcoral (and this is what ticks people off)
1) The frags aren't captive raised they are fresh cut wild frags for cheap. Treat em like any other Wild Piece, and have the same expectations from them (pests, colour shifts, and frailty)
2) For some reason he mixes his wyswig corals and non wyswig corals in the same section, it will tell you when you click on the photo. I didn't realize this until I saw the same coral I thought I had bought, and heard others upset about it.

LOL Exactly what I was thinking, something HORRIBLE, like a shattered tank front or something.
Good luck with the frags!!

Heh, I'm in the Eastern Sierras (center east California). Closer to reno then any major city in California. It's 5 hours to anywhere, but with that said. Who can say no to trying out a hand full of corals frags for 10$, and free shipping.. Figured I would give it a shot at least once. When I lived in socal sure, but I also ran my own business then and had the pick of the litter!

Ha, true that would be the extreme, I should have specified in an email. However I've had my tank break before, and I do have AEFW.. Sooo?

honestly just my opinion I think mr coral is one of the worst people you could buy from.
He gets coral chops them up and sells them asap with shipping... The corals go through hell before they arrive to you but that's just my opinion.
survival rate has got to be very minimal
