Reefs Edge has a new shipment

[jeffbrig]

I stopped by yesterday evening as everything was being unboxed and got a preview. Lots of quality stuff. Of course, I got to call dibs on a few pieces.

I took my camera along, so here are a few shots:

Yumas

Bubble Tip Anemones

Heliofungia (long-tentacle plates)

Favia

Open Brains, Acans

Acans, Scolymia, Oxypora(?)

 

[jeffbrig]

Lots of new acros, and some great colored pieces in a variety of sizes.

This lokani(?) has my name written all over it

And this blue one too

I also called one of these montis. Reminds me of a superman, but from a distance is a deep purple.

Oh fine, don't actually post pics of anything that I picked out You are so clearly discrimating against us softy lovers.

FYI - reddish polyps + bright blue background = purple from a distance :rollface:

Thanks for sharing, really nice corals. I've never been there, tonight i can't make it but will swing by tomorrow evening to see what is left. And thanks Pedro i just used your GoogleMaps Mashup to get directions.

The lokani looks more like a granulosa, but Manny will know better than I.

Very nice looking shipment... If only I could fit another dang coral in my tank... but alas, I'm just about at capacity.

Oh, and for those of you who don't know how to get to LFSs around town, Pedro has done a really great job putting together a fish store finder for easy directions/maps. It can be found at:

It may very well be, they're somewhat similar.

I'm just about at capacity.

You and me both, but somehow I keep finding room.

Did he say how much that bubble tip was gonna b?

 

[jeffbrig]

One Meeeeellion Dollars!!!!

No idea, I didn't get prices on any of the anemones. There were actually several that came in, this was just the first one that had opened up. There were two gigantic ones that were green and red. The one in the pic above is more orange by comparison.

Thanks, guys. The mods were kind enough to pin the thread at the top of the forum for easy access.

Most of the acros are in the $30-60 range. Some of the larger, more colorful pieces go a little higher. I think $80 was the highest I saw. I thought the prices were really competitive given the great colors on some of the pieces.

They're also still doing $5 off each piece if you buy 3 sps. So buy 3 and get $15 off your total.

They were open today because of the new shipment. They usually are by appointment on Monday and Tuesdays only, but if you ever need something on those days, I would just call because they are usually around and accomodating.
