Default Frag Prices

I think I did not express myself clearly on what I considered a frag and this lead to some confusion. My frags are more like a mini colony on live rock than what is typically offered for sale as "frags" on ceramic plugs. In talking with the stores I sell them to, some mentioned they were fragging them again and selling for $30 each. Other stores sold them for $50 to $65 depending on size and growth shape. All the stores said the pink and blue milli is an exceptionally rare coral that they have only ever seen from me.

I think the solution is to offer my customers a choice on how they want the frags. Presently it is just mini colonies on live rock but I will now be offering a frag on a ceramic plug like everyone else does. Prices for frags on ceramic plugs will range from $10 to $30. I will post some pics of the other mother colonies I have and the prices for a ceramic disk frag. These frags will be between 3/4" to 1" and may not have any branches.

There will be some Aussie frags available to. I just got a shipment monday night of Aussie acros and LPS. I will post some pics.
