Hi guys. I'm back, just set up my reef down here in Bend again. A small 16g bow, and I'm building a 72g drilled bow right now as well. The 16 was set up at a friends house, and I bought it in his move. Luckey me. Well drop me a line if some of you remember who I am, or if there are any reefers down here in bend.

For single piece of coral I would look local ( i try to look local as much as a i can) the only way I see the internet being good for coral or any livestock is when you are ordering huge lots to where shipping is free, but even then most Local places will probably try to work something out if you are spending upwrads of 175 to 225 bucks in coral alone. At least if I owned a store I would.

I live in bend so it costs me more in gas to get to eugene or portland than shipping. I will just hafta order as much coral to get the weight of minimum shipping. But i was wondering a reputable site.

Travis at Upscales is who I got mine from... If you come up and buy 3 or 4 pieces you'll still save on shipping costs... I would think.

A lot of times its just a dollar amount which is nice, like spend $200 get free shipping. That $200 goes fast when buying nice stuff.

I've gotten nice stuff from reefscience.com. Also check out the sponsors over at RC.

An overnight box to Bend is only about $25. Not to bad.

That would be really cool reynaldo. I'd shoot him some dollars to give you if you'd like. I REALLY want that purple rim green cap. as far as blasting it with light, i run a 175w MH over my tank with 2 24" vho's

i found a store in Redmond that has anemones and fish. I got a pretty nice rtba, but he doesn't deal in any sps, so i'm still on the internet search.
