from the stores point of view in a big city if they dont have something i like im walking out and on to the next store, so in order to keep my business they either half to pony up in advance and take the risk of ordering and hoping i like it or that it sells or allow me to order for myself ,pick out what i like and they get to increase their order size and there fore their "ultra" selection...this is especially true for aussie stuff where the word "ultra" has gone mad

getting the store to let you have the ultra selection is a different story lol especially when you get to see the prices.....lots of markup on high end selection....people get greedy when they see this......makes for a stupid market


zoos then have no real ids , their of the same class and no really species ids so on the order sheet it likely says:

xl-polyps red/green
med-polyps blue




that could basically mean anything , now adays pics are more common so the nicer stuff gets ordered a bit more then it did years ago but still goes out to the larger retailers.

at least off the ultra selection the colors are better guessed , so safe to say any red/black combos of ultra are going to be decent


there is actually a decent demand for saltwater say here in calgary i can guarantee it, the problem is the lfs arent interested in a change of business.
