    That's really awesome! Does this Monti cap have a name?

    Very nice monti! do you have a common name for the color pattern? I just got some Jedi mind trick that I'm pretty stoked on, but that's quite the piece right there.

    Ask them to have fedex hold it at the local delivery building so you can go pick it up, this way the coral will never be out of a climate controlled environment and you can pick it up first thing in the morning. I really prefer this if I'm shipping or getting coral shipped to me.

    I agree with the frags being huge and the corals being very nice. However, when I got my order two of the 6 bags were leaking badly. Everything survived and + feedback was left. However, I did send them a message about the poor packing. They got very defensive and blocked my friends ebay account from bidding.

    That is a nice monti. I snagged a frag that looked like that when I baught it. it it now bright neon green. still pretty, but i wanted the purple with green polyps. O well.

    as far as i know it's a no namer, but still a very nice monti, sorry about the bad experience probably due to the shipping company beating up the box and corals poking holes in the bag not the original packing job

    Box was fine and no holes in the bags. The rubber bands on the bags were not tied on properly and loosened during shipping.

    no excuse for that. you were being friendly... is this the same place we talked about a while back where I had the bad experience with my calcium reactor packing?

    Nope. Different place. goldenbasket8 has a lot of nice stuff listed on ebay. They list new items each night. I would love to buy some more stuff from them, but I can't.

    Is it different from a Poker Star Monti? Those are purple with green polyps.

    Kind of reminds me of my Tyree Purple, which I have never seen anywhere. Except mine is purple with grey polyps.
