Has anyone out there ever purchased anything from MMFI?

You have my sympathy. If you're persistent, you should get some kind of response. No one responsible for wordy repetitive ads like theirs could keep quiet forever. It's interesting how the commercial alga scrubber business seems to cause lawsuits. For instance, Adey's algal turfscrubber was originally marketed by Inland Aquatics, and then Adey (encouraged by his son the lawyer) sued IA because they felt they weren't getting enough out of the deal. Then after that there was a new Adey approved company selling his algal turf scrubber. I just tried to find that website - couldn't find it - out of business already?
As vitz said, it's bb's like this that can protect the hobbyists. I like to think I wouldn't be taken in by hype. If I had checked around, I wouldn't have bought some live rock from the all too aptly named Aqua Con.

I'd like to keep this thread going so everyone can see what a scam it is.

Better watchout, Wombat, they might sue you for slander.

I couldn't make it past half of the first page ....

I ordered some 'ultra-premium' live rock from aquacon - it turned out to be low quality base rock - very little coralline, uninteresting shapes. It was fully cured, as advertised. If you do a search on this company over on Reefcentral, you'll see many complaints about the way they do business.

$20K....HOLY S*%T. Man do I wish I had that kinda cash to burn. Too bad about that sham though. I agree that civil action needs to be taken. But that kind of money might require an attorney.
