    yes, the happy coral might be a better option, you can get a couple different types that you like rather than a random pack.

    I've ordered from saltcritters twice! They're $5/10 frags are small but they grow! They also have bigger stuff too! Its a cheap way to get a variety of stuff and see what u like/dont, and more importantly what your tank likes and doesn't! For instance, my tank hates chalice, and I didn't drop alot of cash to find out;)

    Shipping for them is very reasonable and the corals show up in good condition, even in the dead of winter in the midwest. The last shipment I got from them, the zoa polyps were open in the box before I put them in the tank! Talk about a quick aclimation! It's nice when your new coral never closes! It's like the quicky mart of coral!

    And yes they are small, but they will grow. I have yet to lose any coral from them in over a year!

    I should be receiving my coral soon, I only ordered a mystery coral (couldn't help myself) and I ordered a mushroom and a zoa. I didn't wanna order to much cause I don't want them to die if my tank sucks haha
