    I ordered some sponges from them for my new morish idol. I ordered on sunday and per their shipping schedual they should have shipped today and arived tomorrow. But guess what no shipping notice or responce to my emails today. I sure hope they ship them tomorrow. I realy don't understand why a buisness would do stuff like this and make themselves look bad. It realy seems that this place dosn't realy care what happens once they get your money. I have had decent luck with them tell now. But am starting to see what all the bad reviews are all about. I'll let you guys know how it plays out. I realy hope for their sake and the sake of my hungry morish idol that my order gets here friday.

    Same thing happened to me except I was sitting there waiting for the package thinking maybe they forgot the shipping notification the day before. It took a lot of phone calls before we finally got a hold of them. They are very inconsistent and too many bad reviews out there. I have yet to have a fish live from them either.

    i have ordered fish from them twice. I rarely ever lose a fish, but i cant say that any ive ever ordered from them lived more than a month, for whatever reason. I really will stick to live aquaria and lfs for fish purchases. i dont mind buying snails and crabs from them, but its pretty hard to have issues with those!

    Thats a bummer, there is a guy on a local forum setting up a group buy, I wonder if he knows about the bad reviews?

    what i do not get is they are sponsers of ours, and even post on our forums. I mean why go through all that trouble if they are going to just screw ya around?

    I figured they could handle a simple order for sponges. And they should have had enough on hand seing as they were haveing a sale on them. To be fair though I do have a stary blenny from them that is 8 months old. But it seems to be the only long lived reefs2go fish in the club.

    Do you think the weather held up shipment?

    lol funny look what I just got in my email how convienent after starting this thread lol.

    Upon review of your order - I feel that is in all of our best interst to postpone the shipment - we have no sponge scheduled to arrive on Tuesday (12/21) and I believe you will be much more satisfied with the quality then what would be available if I ship as originally planned. I apologize in advance - however I believe ultimately you will be much happier if we wait!! :) -- Thank you for your business, KrisCustomer Servicereefs2go.com

    Real glad I ordered from them insted of liveaquaria NOT!!!! I realy don't know why they take peoples money when they can't fill the order on time. Now I have a morish idol that needs some natural grub but they have my grub money. I will never order a single thing from them ever again. It's not worth the couple bucks you might save.

    Hey Bill

    I have a bit of sponge growing in my sump you can have if you are in a pinch. I am actually going to a Christmas dinner Sat night in Burlington. You are welcome to it if you want to drive over & get it.

    I think he will be ok for a little while longer as he is picking stuff off the rocks here and there. And there are a few small sponges under the rocks he's working on.

    I have TONS of sponges for you! This stuff grows like crazy all over my tank. Every water change I siphon out as much as I can and it goes to waste. I could run a siphon hose to one of my filter socks and get you a gallon bag of it! haha

    Let me know if you need any. I don't feel comfortable trying to ship this, especially in this weather...
