I got SPS. One of them shmancy Red Rainbow Acros. Too bad it arrived as a bare skeleton. LOL. S@$* happens. Emailed Burc and he's going to make good on it in the next order. First time I've had an SPS die on me from him.

Also seems he messed up one of my frags. Was supposed to get a red/yellow favia, got a red and green favites or something. If you were supposed to get a red green favites, I have it.

I'm going to give the acans a day to recover before I submitted my judgement...

What I've found in the past with Burc's orders is that a bunch of things lose color from shipping (especially reds) but bounce within a week or two. I've never had a frag from him that I've been unhappy with, even if it was the wrong one!

Sorry to hear some people's orders didn't work out I'm not sure if I got the acans I ordered, but they are all healthy.

Aquaria, my rics both look good. Heres a pic

My 3 acans look good but 2 of them look almost identical...guess one can go wrong with just $10 for an acan.

None of my acans look like the acans everyone else is posting

They look so plump and nice and colourful and big (and this just sounds wrong).... and mine are like scragly froot loops!

Seems I got the wrong torch corals as well.... Did anyone else order Torch?
Ordered green and purple tip torch, got a yellow tip (ugly brown with bright tips) and some type of Frogspawn/octo thinger.

Looking at your 2nd Choice Column on the spread sheet, it looks like you got everything but from your second choice.

My acans look pretty good, I've seen both extend feeders already


This is my first acro, third sps overall, and it has colored up a bit and has partial polyp extension


And these are the pink/teal palys that I'm sure will colour up quite nicely. I'm surprised how many polyps I got, website said 15-20 and I count well over 20.


Overall I'm impressed with my order, I'm interested to hear how the mistakes are corrected.

Also, huge shout out and thanks to Anthony! His big tank is beautiful, I'm glad I got a chance to see it!
