Like a lot of people are saying with all the gift cards, 1/5$ frags, and the freebie corals in each order, I think the sale is still worth it to stick around. This is the first sale I’ve done on r2r w Shane and I wish I had been on here for the last sale when I bought from him bc of all the gcs and other things I missed. Not to mention I honestly already feel like I’m getting a deal with the size/color of the coral I get for the price. I get how people who have been around longer could be frustrated with waiting though.
Youre still just skin popping. Wait till you get the pieces in your tank. I scoff at my non-SBB torches, theyll be the first to go to make room for an SBB Bright AF HG.

If you didnt spend minimum dollar on the sticks, the sizes are incredible for the price. Not all of them come in with color, but they come in healthy. I only lost one of 16, which came in, in bad shape and was immediately refunded. All basing. All coloring.

I just got back into the hobby after 4 years and this was my first live sale. Overall it was a fun experience although i came in last minute. Able to score some nice corals at great value. Thanks again @SBB Corals for this event!
It ain’t over yet! I’ve had tons of fun in SBB sales, although I’m out this round, I’ll be back for the next.

This really is a wierd niche, its almost a market inbetween wholesale and retail.

You kind of need to spend low-end wholesale money, but you dont do it at the frequency of say a LFS doing weekly/monthly stocking, well some here probably do LOL.

Plus youre not getting just any old bunk mari's that just die or infect your system. SBB fronts that portion of the process.

@SBB Corals Which one is this glowing red right here? Seeing them all together like this is always awesome, especially when you do these videos of colonies. I used to love when before sales you’d have a lineup of like your top 15 acros on a frag rack and make an IG reel of that.

Is anybody upset that the reveal didn't happen yet if yes please come forward and let us know so we can improve in the future. Maybe we just stop doing these as we don't want to upset people we thought it was fun
I was lucky enough to get #3, so I have a dog in the race. I'm just happy/pleased that I got something which will probably be awesome for free. It comes when it comes and I appreciate it.

For this sale, it felt a bit less active and more elongated, so constructively you might just want to make them a bit shorter and more active if you want that feel.

That said, overall I'm really happy with my order from the last sale and what I was able to get/snag from this sale. You're a generous, quality vendor that I intend to continue transactions with.

Not dismissing your feedback, in a lighthearted way, this sale felt significantly shorter, by 10 fold. That last sale started like christmas and i was still buying stuff 3 weeks ago. Actually crippled me.

But you’re just a baby?
Some sharks have only one baby…because the species that do “live” births have the first one eat its siblings . Mmmm….protein. And Great whites are live birthed and are 6 feet long almost when they pop out. Just sayin….

What type of coral? SPS, LPS, shrooms, RFA?
LPS, go with one of Shane’s torches. Small ones are the same size as other vendors large ones. I personally love his Gonis (duh) as well and most of my frogspawn and the 3 hammers I have are SBB. Lots o shrooms still. And can’t go wrong with his Acros. Just pick a price/color that fits.
