Check Emmett, he sells different colored on a large disk, perfect for a center piece

I keep hearing of this legend. I've never seen or meet the guy. I feel like he's some kind of coral fairy tale

I will have to go back over there (just was there last Sunday (he lives around corner from me)) I didn't notice the Rics, I was too busy buying other stuff!!!
thanks Pedro

Todd... Oh, Emmett, his tank is what SPS freaks aspire to do in the long run. Unbelievable is all I can say, take the trip on your way to buy my light !! really great guy also. Don't buy all the stuff .... leave some for me

+1 on Drysdale. Doug has an insane collection of rics right now.

Drysdale has a large supply in stock. Emmitt dosnt let many rics go. I tried a couple times to buy some but they weren't for sale

Emmetts Purple Rics are mine. I don't recall him selling a lot of the other colors but I am sure that from time to time it happens.

Todd, Emmett is real. I see him every Wed. evening. Always worth checking out just like everyone else.

Whatever you do, dont order from reefs2go. I ordered two, one green and one blue. Both arrived struggling for life (white) and after about a month still have not colored up. Both are still pale/colorless while the rest of the garden is vibrant.

Tagging along.

I might give these folks a call see about size (as well as call Drysdale). Shipping reasonable as well. Pedro - have you bought from Rare Reef before?

 

[aguila88psi]

Yep, its where I score some sweet zoas, only ordered once before and all are doing great in my system.

 

[janes_mw]

Thanks folks for the leads. I will prolly figure out tomorrow and order something.

I ordered 2 ten packs from RareReef. I will let everybody know what the stuff looks like. Shipping is $17 bucks within FL, I spend that driving around Tampa getting stuff! Looks like they are having a sale tonight. One thing I found with this supplier is that items on their website goes quick and updated often with sales. I watched their facebook page as well.

anyway, I will give update when I receive (probably Tue).

www.ccritters.com usually has good deals on rics too.

So does rare reef have only a few corals for sale or am I missing something?

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.

I got my eye on that Orange and blue yuma, that thing looks sweet, best of luck to all but more luck for me lol.
