Copps helped me out with these this week. They are still a tad stressed but I sure like them, thought you guys might like a gander also:

Safecrackers

Blue and Golds

Red Asterinas and some cool no name ones

Radioactive Dragon Eyes

Watermelon Palys and RDEs. Man, I had the toughest time getting a good pic of the WPs. the center and mouth is this weirdly flourescent green (unlike PE's- lighter) and then the rest is a gorgeously vivid watermelon hued pink.

Some other shots:

This last one is wicked- I got it in a thermos trade:

Copps is a awfully nice guy to share.

I really like getting aquacultured versus wildcaught anything in my tank if I can at all help it. There is alot less shipping death, or death of the frag a while after shipping.

I mean, can you imagine being ripped off your rock in the reef, dumped into a bucket, driven to a facility, shipped to a retailer, and then taken home ina baggie to somebody's tank that is nothing like the reef?? No wonder so much stuff dies, imo, poor guys.

Laurie, you left out "baked in the hot sun all day" and "jammed into a dark crate" and who knows what else

 

[Mr. Ugly]

I like them all, except for the DDB of course. But then, the last DDB I got from a LFS turned out to be GPE, so who can complain???

BTW, I saw a grey frogfish at a LFS today in Ellsworth. He was so cool, like a little fishy stone gargoyle. He must have liked me too (Or maybe I scared him, :lol: ) because he swam up to the glas and chilled with me for a minute. I almost bought him, but I am holding out for yellow or red.

Cool

Here's a froggie zoa pic just for you, Laurie

 

[jessiesgrrl]

Cool pic!! He looks like he is doing the Madonna 'Vogue' thing from the late 80's... Too bad you can't breed me one!
:lol:

I second that. I did a deal with copps a few months ago. He was very patient with me and kept the communication up. Great guy. I had a good experience with his next day shipping. When I had recieved the package, I had a few hitch hiker critters. A small brittle star and a couple of copepods that managed to stay alive during shipping. If my memory serves me correctly this was during the middle of the Cali heat wave too. Great pick ups Laurie!
