They look similar to a lot of the pieces that are now on Unique Corals. I have yet to buy anything from them but I plan to visit their store in NYC sometime next week.
Wasnt going to lay out big cash for any frags if I can see them in person as lighting/photography can make things look amazing online.
Anyone ever get stuff there?

I will admit, my photos are blue due to my new T5 bulb combo.
4 blue + 1 fiji purple and 1 aquablue spec will do that.

It's an awesome store. GO THERE, DO NOT BUY ONLINE IF YOU LIVE CLOSE ENOUGH TO TRAVEL! The prices on some pieces are like 1/3 if you go to the store than if you buy online. One caution: DIP EVERYTHING FROM THEM! I just got red bugs from them that are now creating chaos in my tank. I dipped, but apparently not long enough.

I have honestly never dipped a coral so I wouldnt know what brand, product or how long to dp for if you could provide some insight.
What type of red bugs are they?
I live across the water in NJ so going to a place like that is fairly easy but the fact that you had an outbreak after is kinda scary especially since their prices are so high.

24 hour interceptor and 10 minute revive ALWAYS.

You're the first person that I've ever heard say dip in interceptor for that long. The general rule is 6-8 hours. I dip for 7 .. it was a large thick colony humulis and looking back on it, I probably should have dipped longer. I've also heard revive doesn't kill red bugs?

No revive does not kill red bugs, if it did.. I wouldn't be using interceptor. A "true" 100% interceptor treatment is achieved after 24 hours.
