Anyone have a picture of a cb birthday cake? The one I got from him is literally just red. It looks nothing like the one on cb’s website. I kept trying to convince my self it was all camera tricks.

I don't really want to pick a side here but if anyone is concerned about a TGC Orange Creamsicle they purchased from LED:

It likely came via me and is a real deal piece with traceable linneage to TGC.

I know that's not at all the highest end piece being talked about here, but thought I'd put it out there.

With all due respect, that also does not mean that he was selling frags of ‘your’ coral as TGC Creamsicle. From what we are seeing from the multitude of people on this thread is that he may have all these high end pieces, but that IS NOT what he is shipping to buyers!

Good Morning Chump,

Well it happened! Now you're running? COWARD!! LIAR!! THIEF!! And a bunch of other bad stuff.

Just thought I'd remind you Cassio of the man you're not.

You can run, but your past will be running right along side.

A bunch of us would have forgiven/forgotten you had you've manned up and gave the credit you said you would to make things right. Instead you run like a little B!

Good luck getting through life screwing people, than writing poor me sob stories. No one cares about your story.

I wish it was easier to forgive you, but you dang sewer rats keep breeding and popping up everywhere. Unfortunately you're not alone. There's a hole mess of cowards like you!!

To Cassio and the many vendors out there chasing the buck, when you're chasing the dollar you will end up flat on your face one day, unable to get back up. So I hope you're having fun counting your dollars? Chumps!!

dang, I bought HOTO, Oregon Tort, wwc rainbow Milli, Vivids Confetti and RR Shaza back in February

Now I am wondering if they are real or not. Transaction went well. I am pretty sure they had AEFW though. I saw a ton of bite marks. Did multiple dips. He did keep calling Heart Hearth for some reason.

The rainbow milli is still tiny too and looks like a plain sunset milli to me.

RR Shazam - Not sure what to make of this one. Doesn’t look like any of the Shazam Photos online. Maybe it will change colors later?

I met him personally couple of times and purchase numerous frags from him. I had my doubts about some of the frags I purchase like angry bird MattV rainbow and purple ,yellow and orange passion. I have to say that some of the corals have done well but I know they are not the real deal. Took my lost as a learning experience and moved on.. That millie on that picture, he got it from me ! I gave him a small frag that broke off my colony and I have to admit it colored up very well for him, but is not a Wwc rainbow millie.

I have to admit he does know how to grow sps coral. His frags are nice size and color, just too bad they aren’t what they are sold as.

Not sure he grows corals,,,, runs around, buying and flipping..
Sent me videos of his multiple 10' long frag tanks in Boston, on sure they were commercial farm tanks out of this country....

Isn't it within the forum agreement for disputed images to be posted with seller name and date or something like that? Because I too was skeptical of the giant system. @Ledreef #MODS #Admins can we request some up close and full system pictures with verification. That should help this.

Wow I wish I would’ve seen this thread sooner. I too fell victim to this guy, falling for the TGC angry birds. Over a year ago I put a wanted thread out in my local forum looking for a Palmers blue Mille. He responded to the thread, even though he is in New Jersey. He said he has all kinds of milles. I was hooked by the pics and pm’d him. Unfortunately, another local reefer contacted him first and actually got his angry birds too. The local reefer said the guy was super weird to work with but the corals looked good. When he finally responded to me, and yes, he was very weird. His coral list had lots of misspelled words or replicates of misspelled “named corals “. He shot me pics of a colony of a particular Mille that was flat out amazing. He said it was Rommels rainbow . He also has a hot pink Mille that he said was snipers bubblegum. It didn’t have blue tips but it still looked nice. I purchased his TGC angry birds, Rommels rainbow, blueberry Mille, snipers bubblegum, and a sunset Mille which he said was from his friend “Sunny”. I asked him if it was the sunny x Mille from procorals. He said it was. the pack came poorly packed but the corals did look great. The angry birds looked like a regular blue tenuis with green polyps. Unfortunately I moved and had to sell my corals, so I don’t know what they grew into. I really just wanted some nice looking corals, not necessarily the brand, but I did pay through the nose for a green polyp tenuis .

Is this the same guy? This was posted on our local forum in SoCal. If it is, I thought he said he was leaving the hobby.

If not, it's an unfortunate name choice. Why would someone on a local forum be talking about shipping costs? ;)

Text him and if you get 100 pushy texts to buy now, add more corals and unreal pics, you found Cassio.

Oh I got that, that’s what turned me off about him and made me skeptical dealing with him. Luckily I ended anymore communication with him and didn’t get taken.
