Just got our corals this morning! They have been temp acclimated, drip acclimated, dipped and now in our display on the frag racks. I couldn’t get a good pic of the acan from above but I was able to capture a good sidish pic. The colors are amazing on both!! The polyps on the birds nest have started to open and look great! I’m waiting for the acan to get the puffy chunkiness. But let me tell you the colors OMG!!!! The fruit fart does not disappoint in person!!!! And the pics Ann posted of the frags are almost identical in color to what I am seeing under my lights. Here’s a little collage of a comparison of the pics of the frags provided by @Living Reef Orlando and what they look like in my tank! I can’t wait for the next live sale! Even more excited after receiving our shipment!!

So now that I have received my corals I just want to give a little feedback about them.
1. They did not disappoint at all in size or color. They are exactly what was in the pics and the coloring is almost spot on to how they look under my lights.
2. My box didn’t come with a packing sheet or anything on the bags. I feel like that is something that could be improved on. At this point I know what we ordered cause there were only two things snd those two things are nothing alike. But for instance let’s say it was two torches that were close in color or two frog spawn or two hammers for example. It would be nice to have something on the bag even if it is just handwriting in sharpie to say what the frag in the bag was. So I feel maybe including a print out of our order and labeling the bags would be a vast improvement and make things easier especially if like I said it is two frags of something that could be easily confused.
other than number 2 the box was packed perfectly and the packaging was great! Thanks again for this sale and I’m excited for the anniversary sale!

Just got mine in, dipped and placed. Saw these weird spots on my candy cane/trumpet frag. Anyone know what this is? Never had a candy cane before so not sure if it’s normal. Thanks!
Everything else looks amazing!

Thanks for the feedback and glad you loved the corals!
So we do normally label the bags and include some literature, but we underestimated the amount of coral we would be shipping on Monday lol!! We ran into a bit of a time crunch and unfortunately we weren’t able to label the bags. You guys rocked it and had us packing from 9am till almost 8 PM!!

Hi! That is just the mesenterial filaments of the coral itself. Most LPS do so when handled, but it should be good to go soon!

Awesome! Thanks for the info! I’ll get some pics of everything up once they’re settled in!
Received my box today. Let’s just say, right now I’m thinking WOW. I have ordered from quite a few of the companies labeled as big names, this being my first order from LRO.
Never have i had every single coral open within an hour of being in the tank, never ever. All 12 frags are exactly as pictured, colors already look incredible, and it’s still a white part of my light program. I can’t wait until 8pm to see these colors when I’m in full blown blue mode.
I highly recommend adding the Apocalypse Zoas to your tank, these things are absolutely full, thick, and gorgeous!!!!!
@Living Reef Orlando i’m sold, you just earned plenty of future business for my 3 tanks and thanks again for the package you worked with me on privately!!

Ok, so after opening my 2 boxes, I have to say. I am more than impressed with @Living Reef Orlando corals. When they say WYSIWYG you can definitely take that to the bank. These are absolutely amazing, and I am loving each and every one of my 50 corals that I recieved. And I would like to give a huge thank you to Ann for everything, and especially for reaching out to me via phone call, as well as texts. This level of customer service is unparalleled, atleast in my experience, this day and age. I will most definitely be ordering from them again. And I am really looking forward to planning a trip to Orlando and hopefully being able to visit the farm.

I can tray to start one, and yes I am looking forward to watching the progress myself. I have until the beginning of November before I can put fish back in so figured it's a great time to build and focus on corals.

OMG, these are the best frags I have seen. I will definitely be ordering from them again. The ultimate rainbow mille is way beyond expectations. Honestly guys and gals their pictures don't do them justice. After acclimating the frags I set them up in a 10g tank so that I could look at them all and keep them in water as I was placing them. Meanwhile every single one of them started to open up within 10 minutes. Never has this happened before when purchasing corals from any other place. Still trying to find places for some of the frags. But will probably end up putting them in my 30 for now.
