Did anyone consider that maybe some people are willing to spend this kind of money on coral skeletons. Perhaps not everyone enjoys robbing the natural reefs, fyi " 90 percent of some of the most popular coral species collected from reefs die before or soon after they reach the aquarium owner". But that's OK, why buy dead when you can buy live for the same price apparently, haha too funny  |
Are you insinuating that if you buy a dead coral that you're not "robbing" the natural reefs like the people who prefer to buy live coral?
Even if you harvest a dead coral..... you're stealing the home/building blocks of another.
Some might even argue that tank kept corals may be the key to re-introducing a given species once it's extinct.
What I found sad when reading this thread was that I sent 2-5 gallon buckets of these gems to the dump a couple of weeks ago.
