sk187 May 20, 2015 Share May 20, 2015 Hey everyone, Has anyone had any experience with Reef2Go? They have some pretty bad reviews online but I am trying to figure of if only the people who had bad experiences bothered to write a review or they are just bad in general.Thanks!

Squishie89 May 20, 2015 Share May 20, 2015 Depends on what you are getting and if you will be quarantining. Their pods are not worth it, unless you really want more amphipods, I also found possible parasitic isopods in my package last time I got them. Their macro algae came with more hitchikers including a crab I was lucky I found. I would definitely quarantine everything, fish, inverts, algae, and go through things with a fine tooth comb (so to speak). I think there are better venders out there though and I wouldn't waste your time or money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmerek2 May 20, 2015 Share May 20, 2015 We bought that $20 cleanup crew deal a week ago. It was well worth it for the money. Of course there was a dead one and an empty shell or two. Exptect it from anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfishgirl May 20, 2015 Share May 20, 2015 I bought 3 things from them and I only 1 thing made it. It's hit or miss. But for a few dollars it's worth a shot. You might be successful. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildcrazyjoker81 May 20, 2015 Share May 20, 2015 I have had similar experiences as everyone above. You absolutely need to follow strict QT protocols with anything from them including CUC/inverts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruleyii May 20, 2015 Share May 20, 2015 I ordered the cleanup crew and had one bag pretty much be all dead snails. I would say half of my snails were dead. They were also on the smaller side but you really cant beat the price. I'm probably not going to order anything again from them though. Just my 2 cents.

WilRams May 20, 2015 Share May 20, 2015 I also bought the $20 deal. For the price I can't complain too much either. I had one bag with tiny hermits that had a few dead otherwise all is well. I wouldn't go out of my way to order from them though. I would like to buy Copepods but have read they mostly send amphipods. Would AlgaeBarn be a good source for Copepods?

Algaebarn is definitely one of the better spots to order just copepods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunWyrm May 20, 2015 Share May 20, 2015 I ordered fish and whatnot from them a few years ago since they had cheap shipping for our area. I would practically have to return my whole order for doa or very soon after arrival. They would then give me credit for those items, then I'd go through the whole process again. Just a headache IMO and I still have a bunch of credit with them that I'd rather not use.Out of everything I've ordered, I had one coral beauty live, and a couple of the free crabs that were tossed in an order. All other fish came in visibly diseased or sick. Once I ordered a harlequin shrimp, they sent me a tiny, broken hermit shell and tried to tell me it was in there. /ventMaybe it was just a bad time for them, but since they've upped their minimum shipping it's not worth it to get anything other than their cuc packs.

s2nhle May 20, 2015 Share May 20, 2015 I ordered the copepods from them awhile back. no complained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk187 May 20, 2015 Author Share May 20, 2015 Ok well it looks like I will just avoid them like the plague. I was going to put in a big order. Any LFS or online store you guys would recommend. I am in DC but I don't have car so its an ordeal to travel far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YHSublime May 21, 2015 Share May 21, 2015 Dr macs is a sponsor, and I've always had great deliveries from them. You probably fall in their zone shipping as well. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
