Red planet frag, how much????

[molotov]

Great thread here.

When I first started in this hobby I really wanted a red planet frag. There are vendors in Calgary that were/are selling a 1" frag for fifty dollars. The attraction for me was because it was considered to be rare. Now that I've been in the hobby for about a year a lot of the tanks I've seen have red planets. Everyone's got them now and I now have no desire to pay a premium for a coral that is in every sps tank.

That being said and to answer your question, I would pay $15 for about a 2" frag. It's still a nice colourful piece. I just don't think it commands the price it used to. It's a supply and demand thing and it I think it's a common coral now.
