+mcallahan Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 I've got the results from the poll, so I'm starting another Vivid order for a mid Aug delivery. Details below. Vivid Aquariums has a great selection of just about everything, including FISH so peruse their website, then place your order keeping in mind the following: - Order closes, Friday, August, 14th @12p - Pickup will be @ my house, 8422 Jamestown Dr, 78758 or if we have enough people, I can coordinate a central pickup. - if we have enough "southies", I'll coordinate a southern pickup. - The shipment usually arrives @ 10:30a so if you can schedule breaking away from lunch or working from home, its a great way to get your goods early! - minimum GROUP total order is $150. So if we don't get enough interest to have a total order value of $150, it won't go - $225+ qualifies for free shipping, otherwise shipping is a flat $30. After the free shipping discount, they will just charge us $10 for the box. We'll split this charge among everyone involved. - $500+ gets us a 10% discount (MIGHT get that lowered, have to 2x check) - Dry goods DO NOT count towards our order total, DO NOT get the 10% off and DO NOT get free shipping. Payment works as such: I have to order and pay for everything myself. They won't let everyone pay individually then group our orders together (like @ reefcleaners.org). So I'm requesting that everyone either pay cash or paypal directly to me before 12p on Friday, 8.14. Once I get everyone's order, I'll confirm it with them, then send the order off. PLEASE NOTE: If you are paying via paypal, be sure to add 3% for paypal fees. I'll let people chime in with pictures of what they got from vivid in the past. I've had GREAT customer service from them and MORE than generous frags so you won't be disappointed. MAKE SURE you check out their WYSIWYG picks. They are adding new inventory all the time and their stuff looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, I appreciate it, but put your $ into the order! I enjoy seeing what everyone orders when I unwrap the box so I'd rather have people get more items! I do get the acknowledgement though, so it doest fall on deaf ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jurgy Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 have any of you ordered fish before or just corals? Just curious to see the success rate of fish being shipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mcallahan Posted August 2, 2009 Author Share Posted August 2, 2009 I've ordered both. We had one large order where we ordered 10 fish and lost 3. Everything was covered under their warranty tho and the money was quickly refunded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reefman Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I'll probably be getting something as well. I think I lost several of my Emerald crabs after the Interceptor treatment. Not sure what else yet. Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Bmwaaron Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I may be in on this also for about $80 if they still have the frag I want when the time comes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mcallahan Posted August 3, 2009 Author Share Posted August 3, 2009 I may be in on this also for about $80 if they still have the frag I want when the time comes which one do you wAnt and I can ask if they can hold it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jknight1 Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 which one do you wAnt and I can ask if they can hold it. Can you try and get them to hold one of those red paly frags? They only offer them as a "WYSIWYG" item. Like this one http://www.vividaquariums.com/10Expand.asp?ProductCode=05-6161-10&Category=Coral%20And%20Invertebrates:Polyps&SortBy=Price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
