I was able to get six cleaner shrimp also. I need two. The rest are up for grabs.

 

[clownfishking]

How much per cleaner?

 

[ShaunW]

I am waiting for the complete run down on prices since the order was so large.

Guys/Gals,
I wasn't able to order from reeftopia today. They won't deliver on Saturday. I have tried all the other retailers that I can think of today (and believe me I called alot of them) but none seem to beat reeftopia's prices.

For example: reeftopia was going to cost in total for the group buy = $489. I priced Dr. Mac for the same package at = $949 (spoke to Dr. Mac personally and he told me that he was giving me HUGE discounts). All the other companies are about the same as Dr. Mac, i.e. twice as much! (except ones that won't deliver on Saturday).

I am going to try Reefermadness tomorrow, since I deal with Chris all the time, maybe we will get a break.

So we have a few options.
1. I order from reeftopia sometime next week, and either you can pick them up at my place or I will try and get them to you somehow.
2. We order from somewhere else.
3. We cancel the order completely.

I am so sorry, , I really tried hard to make this happen in time for the swap at the best prices I could find.
Shaun.

[bad coffee]

I vote order it for next week

[jhale]

I'll be away next week, but I think you should still order from reeftopia. we can always work out the picking up of stuff. the prices are just too good. I wish we knew about the no sat. delivery before, they should state that on the site. oh well. no sweat.

There is a guy who sell on Ebay who sell all kinds of snail/hermits for pretty cheap and he is in Florida. He also uses "Buy it Now" so you can win the auction and get the stuff mail today and delivery to a Fed Ex pickup site. It's also possible maybe you can make a deal directly with him.

jhale, if you need snails ASAP, I could give you some on Saturday.

 

[ShaunW]

Micheal, thanks for the link, I checked him out. His prices match reeftopia, but he doesn't have shrimp, emerald crab, etc.

Reeftopia prices are the best of them all at:
blue leg hermit crab 32c per
astrae snail 29c or 45c per (depending which one)
Nass vibrex 72c per
Peppermint shrimp $2.75 each
Emerald crab $4 each

I just can't seem to find better!

[marrone]

He may have them but isn't lisitng them for auction and he is in Florida where alot of these things are either there or easy to get.

 

[ShaunW]

I sent him an email with the list of inverts. Let's see what he can do for us.

Thanks Michael!

 

[ShaunW]

I spoke to Reefermaddness. They can't beat reeftopia either.

So its pay top dollar and get your inverts on Saturday or we order next week.

My choice is to pay less and order from reeftopia next week. People who signed up please let me know what you want to do?
Thanks.
