Yes because only BC has AEFW. Don't kid yourself.
The intent of post was to make everyone aware that there is a seller selling infected corals and that buyer should beware and dip.

And yes, it would be ethical for him to stop selling until he has eradicated them from his system. But to suggest that nobody is going to buy corals from BC because they have AEFW is just ignorant. No nicer way to say it, sorry.

No. I did not mean it that way. Sure there AEFW everywhere. but poeple such as myself who many time purchases frags from Greater Vancouver area, will need to really think if 'this' person is the one you mentioned.

I apologize if it came out the wrong way.

I don't even buy frags if I know they come from a tank that has brynopsis. Buying online is basically base on trust.

Selling dirty frags is no different than a heroin dealer spreading death.

I always buy fresh cuts or if they're mounted chop off the frag plug. Can never be too safe these days since everyone is suspect.even if they are not you can't just trust it dip everything and qt if possible. Some of the larger coral retailers have a 5 step qt system before the coral makes it into the main display. Wish we all had the money and space to do that.

I think this is definitely an issue everyone in the hobby is affected by and not just localized.
