Wasn't trying to say I was an insider. I was being a smart - you know what. I understand how it could have been misconstrued however. Apologize for that part.

The only part of my post that MAY be inaccurate is the part about resale. The rest of it is completely true. I find it pretty sad that this same person has to chime in with his nonsense whenever there is a post about this vendor. It gets very old. It seems every month or so someone in this club gets a bug up their butt and bashes him. /End Rant and my thoughts on this topic (likely my membership as well)

**Results of the WAMAS investigation** Someone tried to cheat the system. Was attempting to buy many limit one 10 dollar corals so he could turn around and sell them for a profit. Person was called on it. Person continues to take stab at vendor every chance he gets. **Investigation Closed**

Many of the vendor sections didn't have a label of who they were from. Sonny is leaving it up to the seller if they want to advertise or not. There could have been labels I missed, I was focused on yhe corals. One section was corals from an unnamed wamas member. He had some pretty nice stuff at even better prices.

Went to Mr Coral to check out his new setup. I was definitely impressed. There were quite a few nice frags and colonies for sale from many different vendors and the prices were excellent. I walked out with two SPS colonies, a softball sized acan colony, and several high end zoas and rics and spent under $200. There was a ton of nice stuff and word is that many of the vendors haven't even sent their stock yet. I'll probably be returning this weekend to see what else gets brought in.

Totally. And your epidermis is showing too.

As for the bait and switch accusations, that's a pretty serious accusation. The rules say limit one on the high end frags. Seems, to me at least, you were trying to circumvent the rules by placing multiple small orders to get multiple limit one's. The "exact wording" may not have explicitly said limit one per order, but I think the average consumer would naturally think that limit one meant limit one per customer. I see no issue with canceling your order for that reason. I know multiple people were interested in the hornets for $10. If he allowed everyone to place multiple small orders like you were trying, only a couple of people would get them and you'd see other discussions on here about how he didn't have what he advertised. Seems like a no win situation... I'm not familiar with the inner workings of paypal, so I can't speak to whether or not it's his fault. 3 months does sound like a long time for a resolution though. Sometimes I wonder why he bothers being a WAMAS vendor. It's fairly obvious that a lot of people on this forum have it out to hurt his business. (Not saying this post has that intent, but I believe others are) Same discussion over and over.

+1 on the galaxia. Looks like a near dead piece that's trying to come back.

To me the pictures look pretty similar. He's running 400w 14ks in the shop. You're running 150w 14ks. Looks like a product of less intense light to me. Everything still looks great though.

Bristleworm. They are pretty good scavengers. Harmless in your tank unless the numbers get out of hand. That seems like a fairly large one though.

No offense meant to hypertech. It just makes me laugh that he gets blasted that the colors don't exactly match even though he sells frags for $10 when other stores are selling the same or smaller frag for $60+. (I saw a 2 polyp frag of purple hornets for $10, same thing at another vendor was north of $100).

Definitely wysiwyg. I've actually witnessed him taking the pictures and posting them online. You all act like he is in a lab photoshopping these pictures, rubbing his hands together menacingly and planning his next attempt at world domination.... Actually, come to think of it, there was a world map in the corner and an abnormal amount of beakers in the shop the other day...

That's extremely helpful... . I have one in Charles Town that I never use. Also make it up to Frederick fairly often.

If you can suspend my 700 gallon fish tank from my ceiling and make it look like that for $500 you're hired.

PAR38 is an LED light. I'll let Rob tell you about them. I'm fairly sure he has stock in them.
