[Duce]

Hollywood....
You have good eyes and taste to match.....:)

[Hollywood]

Well I did buy your flavia off you, so I would say our tastes are equally impressive.........:)

[szesteve]

Wow! Those rics look awesome! Might have to drop by tomorrow. :)

[Deleted]

Having fun with the common vs rare bit? In any event, nice stuff.

[Reef Raft]

Please be advised that we will be closing early today due to shortage of water.

We will re-open tomorrow by 10am.

Thanks

[Reef Mike]

Now I think I have heard it all :)

I guess the sale is going well :)

Mike

[Reef Raft]

Blue legged hermits are $1.25 each.

H. Reidi in ORANGE and YELLOW are also in. Lots of males and females.


They are all TANK RAISED and eating frozen food.

[vaporize]

The ultra common ricordia are awesome looking in this shipment comparing to the last "soldout" shipment. Lots of orange, blue, green, and even have a few pink lying around. Where's our ricorida dude, he retired from all the stuff last year? Come on - PINK~!!!

[Duce]

Well I did buy your flavia off you, so I would say our tastes are equally impressive.........:)

Huh? What Favia?

Next shipment will have more pink and red and maybe some yellows. Supplier couldnt go to the SPECIAL island where they collect from due to the weather.

[Duce]

Ummmmm.....Pink and Yellow Rics.........

[Hollywood]

Sorry it was a different guy. Board name is similar. My bad.





Huh? What Favia?

[Poontang]

I'll be there for the pink, red and yellow ricordeas.:hail:

[phatfishies]

Refrain your language, this kind of behavior will not be tolerated on AP.
Regards...

[Deleted]

-.-'

Nothing like a flamer, huh... especially from someone with so few posts (and those he has made are all on a Reef Raft thread).

Your very action would put you in the category you're condemning. Let's be adult about all this and say enough is enough.

Nice pics though. I enjoy seeing what is out there and being able to show my wife what coral I'm going to go get (without the price tag of course).

[phatfishies]

Deleted - in all people are entitled to their opinions cuz we live in a free country. But my point here is that there are those very few people who make postings in almost every thread which they have no serious interest in the product(s) or topic - they do it merely for no good reasons. I'm not to say I myself is an angel, but i would make a statement with a good reason behind it not just for the beep of it! So don't even start.

Good point and I agree. I thought you were trying to start something so I was asking you not to. Sorry I misread your intentions.

[Atomikk]

Huh? What did I miss?

(again)

[Befresh]

Can you post the price?

[Cellenzweig]

I'm sick & tired of how bias this cite is !!! I don't even give a CRAP if you AP people lose my @$$ from AP. I'm now using REEF FRONTIER and surprisingly to know that the Americans are more impressive with this hobby and the most important thing is that there are so much harmony with their cite. No, please don't go. We'll do anything! PLEASE! :sad: :sad:

:wavehand:

[phatfishies]

My initial post said nothing but nice stuff about RR & the Admin. told me to refrain my language? So you're telling me this site is not bias!? And Cellen. don't think you're being cute. You've just proved my point!

[Cellenzweig]

You've just proved my point!
Happy to help...

I thought you were leaving? Or were you making an idle threat in hopes that someone would try to change your mind?

[phatfishies]

I wasn't making a threat to have someone to tell me to stay - Just making a point that I wouldn't care if they deleted me from AP since they took off my post. Anyway keep talking bud - you're totally clueless on what I'm trying to say!

[Cellenzweig]

you're totally clueless on what I'm trying to say!
Yeah, I am kinda confused. Usually when someone says they're leaving, they don't keep posting. So are you leaving or are you staying?

[Reef Mike]

Yet another ReefRaft Shipment thread down the toilet...

We all need to grow up...

Mike

[Asuran]

and i thought it was only automotive forums which has this type of stuff going on....

anyways i was at RR this afternoon nice shipment picked up a few nice pieces and some blood shrimp :D

[220G]

Regretably I missed all the stuff posted earier that was removed by AP (or moderators). I do generally enjoy reading it though :)

Despite the bickering - lots of people are reading the RR post - just as many buying the rics I image.

I was happy to pic up a ric up Sat. am not in the photos, and one of the nicest I have.

[Reef Raft]

My initial post said nothing but nice stuff about RR & the Admin. told me to refrain my language? So you're telling me this site is not bias!? And Cellen. don't think you're being cute. You've just proved my point!
We have been involved with this site since we opened up back in April of 2004.

Have heard it all... trashing, accusations from a HANDFUL of members that some of them I don't even see anymore on this site.

We tried soooo hard not to get involved with the politics that this forum brings and just mind our own business.

THE MINUTE SOMEONE PRAISES US, IT GETS DELETED BUT WHEN SOMEONE TRASHES US, IT STAYED.

WHERE WERE THE MODS WHEN THESE THINGS WERE HAPPENING????? AREN'T YOU ALL SUPPOSE TO PROTECT "SPONSORS", LET ALONE MEMBERS OF THIS COMMUNITY?

GOOD MODERATORS ARE SUPPOSE TO BE NEUTRAL!!!

NOW, PLEASE CORRECT ME IF THIS IS NOT BIAS????? PLEASE TRY TO KEEP THIS ON A PROFESSIONAL LEVEL FOLKS, THERE IS NO POINT ON ALLOWING THIS THREAD TO GET OUT OF HAND. ALL IT IS, IS ABOUT THE SHIPMENT THAT WAS RECEIVED AND PICS FOR EVERYONE TO SEE OUR CORALS.

PS. RUMOUR HAS IT THAT WE OBTAINED OUR "BLACK OCCELARIS MISBAR" FROM DMAN WHICH IS ANOTHER MODERATOR OF THIS FORUM.... TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT, THE FISH WERE BOUGHT FROM ONE OF OUR DIRECT SUPPLIER.

THANK YOU.

[Patwa]

ALL IT IS, IS ABOUT THE SHIPMENT THAT WAS RECEIVED AND PICS FOR EVERYONE TO SEE OUR CORALS.

THANK YOU.

exactly. this is the wrong forum for this sort of talk...move it to the reef discussion forum, at least......i don't know what the exact issue is about the mods as it pertains to RR...but yeah...for what it's worth, they should be neutral no matter what..period!

but yeah....i like the drama....who doesn't? heheh

[Deleted]

It's not always what you say but also how you say it. Hopefully that answers your bias question and kills the drama.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

Now for a question, I was going through your site but your New Arrivals are 'currently out of stock' so I was wondering if they are all sold or just that the site isn’t updated enough? I plan on doing some shopping but would like to show the wife pictures of different possibilities and leave her here. For some strange reason my saltwater allotment ends up being reallocated to shoes whenever I'm volentold to bring her on my excursions.<o:p></o:p>

[Mr.G]

I have not caught the whole gist of this thread = but for some reason it seems as though RR in particular gets a lot of controversial posts remarks that seem to take a life of their own and for whatever reason there seems to be very little done to quash trash talk.
Im all for free speech and the ability to speak whats on your mind - but if I were a paying sponser and regularily had to put up with all this on a semi-regular basis, I would be ticked as hell.

[Reef Raft]

The "New Arrivals" in the livestock section was only added today. We plan on getting the pictures uploaded in there as soon as it arrives instead of posting in on here. That way, out-of-towners will have the same chance as everyone else.

We are currently in the works to hire someone to take care of this so please be patient. I am one to admit that we DO NOT have the manpower to be an online vendor as well due to the VOLUME we bring in. It is very time consuming task to have to photograph hundreds, if not thousands of corals and fishes and upload them let alone keeping the website updated every week... but hey, if there's a WILL, there's a WAY.

[RonPeter]

That would be a full time job just taking the pics and uploading them never mind trying to run a store and service your customers at the same time. People should be glad of the job yopu are already doing. Keep up the good work...and let the flamers and squables be kept private as this isn't the place for that kind of stuff....JMO. :)

[Deleted]

I guess I got mouse happy. The update bit wasn’t a shot; I was just hoping to see a highlight of say 10 pieces or so. Didn’t realise the feature was so new. Hiring someone to have a highlight in the new arrivals and post a link here is a great idea. You’ll still have our traffic but you’ll get outside flow as well. I hear Ron likes pics though so maybe you should still post pictures to keep the picaholics from getting restless.

[mrsynister]

ANYWAYS..... jay thanks for the ric frags!!!! they look awesome in mytank. my gf ended up loving the starfish. salamat! look out for a rta for me thanks!! ill be back for more..

No problem bud. There are still lots of nice items in the store depending on your specifics.

Thank you.

Jay/Jensen, you were not on the board this morning and didn't see what phatfishies posted, deleting his post was the proper thing to do as he was bashing and swearing in public forum, you can ask Deleted as he saw the post and replied to it as well also sent a report to moderators.

Please don't get me wrong as I stated it has absolutely nothing to do with your post/shipment, some people has to learn to respect the boards and the comunity that visit this site on daily basis.

phatfishies, If you don't like the AP forum don't return back and try to prove a point, you were at fault for using foul language as with all members don't respect the forum rules their posts will be deleted without consent, I would like to see how long you would last @
REEF FRONTIER with a mouth like that, get a life and let us enjoy our reef comunity.

Don't you think it is fair to block out the foul language and leave the rest? What do you think?

Cheers

[phatfishies]

You guys are so full of it!!! The only foul language I said was I got a "kick ass" piece of Ricordia and I rave on how RR can sit tall on representing the word "RARE" for their corals and for others who had sooo much to say about that previously are simply bored with their lives that they have to jump on every thread which they have little or no interest in & even the word "Fart" will be controversial to them. Now, my question to you on me swearing is - what, when, where & how!? What- are you gonna delete this post as well to accuse me again?!!!!

[phatfishies]

yeah Rr All The Way-you Guys Woop @$$!!!!

[Patwa]

this thread needs more love.

here's a kiss for all you haters:

I am tired of all this common stuff.... When is the rare stuff coming :) eheheh

I've got to say that some of these threads are very entertaining :)

We should place bets on what the argument/bashing/controversy will be on the next shipment :)

My bet is that someone will object to the use of the term fish and coral in the same sentence :) or to the fact Jensen wears pink panties on shipment days :) ehhe

Mike

[Patwa]

the fact Jensen wears pink panties on shipment days :) ehhe

Foul language is not limited to merely swearing. Trolling is also a form of foul language and should not be tolerated. Bashing those who flame in threads is nothing but flaming in itself. The entitlement of our opinions here is limited to what is deemed acceptable by the administration of ap. Think what you want, feel how you want, but be professional about it when you post.

Personally I enjoy seeing what RR has to offer the reefing community. Some stuff I haven't seen with my own eyes in a long time. Some corals I've never personally seen. Other corals that RR had posted as rare I've had for some time. Long enough for me to have fraged and now see all the time in friends tanks. Are they rare, well maybe not to me but rare is relative. The more you see and have access to it the less rare it is to you however, it may be very rare for Canada as a whole to see in any given reef.

Finally, I have to say that I've personally had enough of the sponsors threads going down the toilet. I hope a mod closes this thread as the shipment has been announced and I'm sure we have all taken notice. I will be glad when the modification to the sponsors section takes place so this will not reoccur.

Please do share with us... which ones are we referring to? Prime example is the A. Tortuosa that was once so RARE and still is for the wild colony. In which, to this day, is very difficult to get. Acans - NOT RARE but the color morphs in which they come in other than red/green, green colors makes it RARE.


The more you see and have access to it the less rare it is to you however, it may be very rare for Canada as a whole to see in any given reef.

I agree 100%

Cheers

[Deleted]

Most of the corals I can remember are zoos, but go figure they're zoos and will grow fast. One that comes to mind is the superman danae (Montipora Danae). I know a few others around me that have it so it's not as rare for me as someone that's never seen it (other than a pic). Because in my circle of friends there are a few of us that have one I wouldn't be able to sell a 1"frag for $100 to another friend (The superman is a slow grower so don't anyone get their hopes up). In my circle the coral isn't rare but that doesn't mean the coral itself isn't rare. It's all relative.

[phatfishies]

Deleted – I discern from your post, for the most part, that we have a solidarity which pertain to the sentiment of one of our Sponsors, RR – I absolutely, sublimely, utterly agree! However, I’m ambivalent in regards to the integrity of the Admins. of AP on what is reckoned to be unimpeachable and what not in terms of objectivity relating their perspicacity. Acceptance is varied from the mind of a bias! As to expressing oneself in a professional manner – I ardently proclaim this forsooth is inessential to the core of AP; in addition, most others don’t possess a professional demeanor. Hence, I need not convey my own self in such fashion - Undoubtfully, I can be as professional as it gets...BUT CHA MON - WHAH ERE?!!!
