Ricordea Garden

[anbosu]

I have been trying to get ccritters to respond, but couldn't get anything out of them (couple phone calls and emails) so I was unsure of their stock (if they had any).

RareReef will be posting a bunch tonight I guess. Last Sat they had a bunch of items, but Monday all gone. They pack a bunch out to Fish Stores as I understand so they turn a lot of stock. Hoping this order looks good for sure.

Oh ok, that makes sense. In the past Dana has always gotten back to me, but who knows what's going on now.

Thanks Emmett! Just got 8 nice Rics from him(good colors). Should have a great start to my garden between these and hopefully the 20 coming from Rare Reef.

I've always read bad things about rare reef. Just do a google search on feedback. I'm pretty sure they used to go by the name Frag Farmer, which basically got the same negative feedback. I haven't seen any 'bad' feedback lately so I guess they're ok to order from now?

I've only made one order probably 2-3 months ago and pretty happy with my order

Time will tell! I ordered yesterday and have not gotten a confirmation or anything from them. I will let folks know what I get .... if and when

I also placed an order yesterday, did not realize who they were.

Thought they where located some where in central Florida, not south.
Crosses fingers, for being so impulsive.

Haven't heard sh$$ from these guys. I tried to add to my order with the facebook items, and requested update twice by email. Not feeling "loved" right now

Got a feeling they service big accounts first and fill gaps with us commoners!

Update on my order, I got my shipment in a good size box, but they put 10 Ricordea in one quart bag.
They got beat up bad, and water temps was in the 90.
The ice pack was very small.

4 of them was detach from the frags. Hoping they pull out of that ordeal.

I will not be ordering from Rare Reef.
Lesson learned, if I really knew who they were, I would of never place an order.

I got 20 basically same condition. I transferred to tupperware immediately (forget acclimation, felt no time). Let set for about an hour then started gluing to frag plugs and rock rubble. All 20 made it. Look ok, pretty small.

Note about Rare Reef - they suck. No communication, they don't answer emails, don't answer phone calls, their website is unsecured in taking credit card info. I will be posting in a separate posting to warn folks of these guys. They definitely take care of big customers first and fill the blanks with the rest. Again - THEY SUCK and beware.

Damn, I had no problems and had great communication, sorry to hear it guys.
