Zoanthids---what's the most you've paid for a polyp(s)
 
Curious as to What's the most expensive zoanthid you've bought ?

Any other die hards out there like me lol

lastlight 05-08-2014 02:52 PM

in other words... who's cried the hardest when their polyp or colony melted away suddenly (without reason) one day?

Well if you break it down then......Technically yes lol

My highest is $250 , several others fall right behind between $125-$200


Those are all one polyp frags lol

My average i pay overall I would guess is between $20-$60 a polyp

To be honest there is no set place , every place has one here , two there lol from other collectors is the best route to go and it takes time to acquire a good collection(years)

I'll pm you some info later today.


With that said......what's the most you've paid for a polyp or frag of polyps?

chef 05-08-2014 03:58 PM

Not much. i paid a decent amount for some sunny d's last year when they weren't so common, but some I have are starting to do well so thinking of getting my toes wet again.

corpusse 05-08-2014 04:19 PM

Many years ago I paid $75 for a colony of Rastas. Maybe 50+ polyps. I used to sell frags for 15-25 and felt a little bad for charging so much. The colony has long since melted and I have nothing left but memories..

FishingGoalie 05-08-2014 04:20 PM

50$

Scythanith 05-08-2014 04:31 PM

Probably about $75-100, I can't remember exactly. But whatever it was it's long gone since then :(

Baker 05-09-2014 12:16 AM

$150 for me so far. Notice I said so far:sad:

Coral Hoarder 05-22-2014 06:06 AM

Can people post names and pics number don't realy mater unless there's something to show for it ( in my opinion)

chi 05-22-2014 06:24 AM

I'm guessing it's like an addiction, kind of like not showing your drug stash to people you rarely know.

Also to not let the unknown significant other know how much you actually paid for your corals.

An emperor paly is priced at around $400pp. There's some other hardcore ones too.
