Default Need rare zoa/paly pricing...

Hey guys,

I have been wanting to add some nice rare zoas to my tank (frag rack grow rack at first) for a few months now and know a reefer willing to ship them. Anyone know the approx. going rate for the following:

Utter Chaos
Space Monsters
Rastas
Candy Apple Reds
Woodstocks
Red Hornets
Sunny D
Darth Maul
Red Hornets
Blue Agave
Everlasting Gobbstoppers
Tyree Armaggedon II

I have not seen these in the stores so I dont know pricing, though I would ask the zoa/paly experts here...

Good luck finding space monsters for less than 100 a head... Candy apples usually go for 40 a head sunny d around the same. Best bet would be check with Paul at Oceanic corals or Ken at Blue world they get them in.

He said I could even get a black hornet but that may have to wait for the next order, lol. Ill definitely share the wealth if they grow out.

Where was this and where are you getting pics and black hornets ? I have too recently discovered an obsession with rare zoos.

its crazy eh once you start to get a couple you start to notice all the ones you really want, alot of people dont understand untill you see some of theses corals in person how insanely coloured they are and some of the patterens are just mesmorizing im setting up a small cube tank in my room just for ultra rare zoas and palys cant wait to actually do some trading again with all the hardcore zoaholics hehehe

That's just sad my friend. I hope your wife/gf doesn't read this on Canreef. Hehehehehe.

I've dreamed of LPS corals and fish, never zoas & palys.

Just picked up Blood Shots, Darth Mauls and a few others, I'm down for some trades ! Drove all the way to Edmonton for a melted frag of Candy Apple Reds, still looking for that particular morph ...
