I ordered several items from this company. (Coralsanonymous.com) The prices were super low and after fishing for reviews, I decided to try them out as there were a little of both negative and positive.
You have to pay a box fee with each order and yes the package was sturdy but when the delivery driver handed it to me, there was water on the outside. Some of the bags were sealed with a metal ring and had leaked. The two pieces of coral were in specimen cups.
I ordered three species of snails. They came in three bags. The red racer snails were were rolled over where as the others, 10 astrea and 8 nassarius, were fine and are still doing well after 4 days. My refund request was denied as the "Snails still have flesh." They were in a clamped bag. I told them that perhaps the 1/8 cup of water might not have been enough but they defended themselves in saying that the snails are shipped to them with a moist paper towel.
Also, the Iridescent Mystic discosoma mushroom coral looked one way, stunning, in the photo on the website but came dark orangish brown and is not Iridescent at all, no blue light glo, healthy though.
The Daisy Polyps I ordered came well past dead, rotting actually. They had me wait 48 hours to send them an updated photo before they would issue a refund.
The macroalgea came healthy.
The two seahorses died, one came doa and the other died not long after.
I know I said refund but they only issued credit codes for future purchases butI don't want to order anything else from them.
I wouldn't recommend them.
