Phang,

How is the condition of yours?

Mine is damaged quite badly when I first got it early this month especially all along the edges where some tissue were being scraped off due to poor shipment. The other pieces were smaller and in worse condition.

I bought it because I think it should be able to recover and thankfully, it did. Hopefully it will last from here on.

Sorta pity those smaller pieces though. Nobody with a practical mind will get them considering the cost as well as the damage already done. So they will just have to sit there and bleach itself out of the tank.

I asked LFS to sell it to me or to others at a "sympathy" price but sadly this is not the practice in the industry. Damaged, however bad, a montipora is still a montipora. If it has to die in the tank, then so be it. Sometimes I feel quite disillusion with this state of events but ultimately this is business concern I guess.

Pretty good condition,

except for small areas, will heal as time goes by...

Which LFS did you got yours for and how much???

SInce your piece is pretty large...

Mine is a smaller frag... but should grow soon. Montiporas are pretty fast growers.....once conditions are met of course... :lol:

Regarding buying damaged pieces, It's better to pay premium price than getting a problematic coral... cos might also affect those that are currently in your reef...

I have seen a whole batch of Acros RTN within 2 weeks in a LFS!!!!!! :(:(

Honestly, most LFS don't have the facilities, sometimes knowledge regarding these SPS... Many of those SPS in their holding tanks are jus sitting ducks unless they are sold off early to reefers and place in the right conditions..... :(

I don't believe you! Dogs are not reef-safe! If you can get Julian Sprung to say that dogs are reef safe then we can talk.

      How do I Recover Scammed Cryptocurrency

      The alarming growth of cryptocurrency investment scams these days is truly distressing. I never believed I would become of the victims, but I was proven wrong. It's true that you can't judge a book by its cover, as the fraudulent company I invested in appeared legitimate. They even had a group chat where people shared testimonies of quick profits after investing. This gave me a false sense of security and made me believe I could easily earn without much effort and stress. After my first cryptocurrency investment; An account manager was assigned to handle my trades and notify me when it was time to withdraw. Initially, I invested smaller amounts $5,000 USD and successfully withdrew my profits. Feeling comfortable, I even voluntarily testified in the Telegram group. However, things took a turn when the manager advised me to increase my investment for a promotional offer. From that point, I faced difficulties with withdrawals after increasing my investment. The manager acted concerned, making it seem like he was not involved, and Advised me to go along with the fees I was asked to pay for me to regain access to withdrawals. I later discovered the truth after working with Century Web Recovery. They successfully recovered my entire crypto investment and my profits from these scammers after they’ve caused me a lot of damages mentally. If you need assistance, contacting Century Web Recovery on email or Website is the best decision to recovering back your funds. If you wish to reach them kindly Google Century Web Recovery then you can contact them.

Picture this: I was just minding my own business, innocently clicking on what I thought was a harmless ad, maybe something about a new “must-have” kitchen gadget, when suddenly I found myself staring in horror at my computer screen, realizing I had just compromised my wallet containing a whopping $480,000.
