    I just ordered some corals and a fire shrimp from them. Has anyone ordered from them recently? I seen the earlier posts from a year to two years ago about people ordering from them on here and figured I would give them a try. I love the selection of corals they have. Hope everything gets here okay, I'm ready for some color in my tank.

    Ordered sun polyps, torch coral, pumping xenia, bluespotted red mushrooms and a fire shrimp.

    I got 15 lbs of Vanuatu live rock from them in early November. Very very pleased with the service, they hand-picked pieces of the size I wanted for me and were very communicative & shipping was really fast too.

    I visited them in person and purchase many corals but I have never don't anything over the net since they are so close to me. I can tell u that their corals are kept very nice and they are trust worthy from what I have seen.

    Received the corals and they are great. So much better than Dr Foster and Smith corals I had ordered from them. Price is just as good from Vivid and corals were actually bigger and better looking. Will only be buying my corals from them, I don't live close to any LFS and am so happy I found a great place to buy corals from.

    Glad you had such a great experience! I've been meaning to order from them for a while now.

    I visited the store over the holidays, and was very impressed. Great looking stock, friendly service, great prices too! And the only store I have seen that sells the entire line of Salifert tests.
