I know most of you will probably buy yourself a tank related item or two for Christmas, maybe you'll get really lucky and receive something as a gift from another, what is it that you will choose? If there was one thing on your wishlist what would it be? I treated myself, yes I admit it. I know of another couple people on here who also have cool stuff coming their way from Santa this year. I needed some color and went the coral route...mind you they are just frags but I love frags so Yay! Here were my picks...
Golden Strawberry Favia 3 polyp $13
Mint Fresh Favia 4 polyp $10.50
Green vein Platygyra 4 polyp $9.50
Toxic Goniastrea 2 polyp $7
Grass fed Cyphastrea 40 or so polyp $9.50
Homegrown Sun coral 2 heads $10.75
Online auction from aquasd. There is a $40 shipping fee for overnight and a DOA guarantee. I can say the customer service and communication with this seller is top notch! The prices were great, and the wysiwyg pics looked great. I've heard alot of good reviews on these guys so I cant wait for the ups truck to show up this coming Tuesday.
I hope you've all been nice this year and Santa brings you something that you love.
Merry Christmas all!

This is the first Christmas I didn't ask for anything aquatics related for Christmas in 4 years. I already got 1 early present (Ps4) and know I'm shooting for a high quality crossbow!(haha pun intended)
All in all I couldn't fit anymore corals anyways and I think my wife would kill me if I asked for another gift card so she didn't "get me the wrong thing"
Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all!

This is a bad time of year to be ordering livestock, as you have found. Many places won't ship this week due to the volume. Most likely your rock will be completely dead by the time you get it. You might want to setup a separate container to cure your rock once it arrives.

I was just hoping to have it last night. like the original estimation said, the delay is not unexpected. just bummed I didnt have it.

I missed the part where you said it was dry rock. Is this rock quarried from Florida sources?
