Erp, now im getting a little scared...

There is no way I can get a few polyps of each of the ultra rare ones. My wife wouldnt be my wife anymore, lol!

Ill ask him about the survival rates of his frags before sending payment.

yeah its a mexican standoff if you buy lots your prob divorced and if you buy few then she stands to say " i told you so "lol

the payoff from them is huge once they grow and you can easily get your money back, if you can get a multi polyp colony that is already showing signs of new babies is even better a friend of mine just gave me a rock with some nuclear greens it had 3large polyps and 9 babies and now just one week later instead of 12 polyps there are 14 and most of the babies are a bit bigger so when theres new growth happening it happenes fast. it stands to reason the more polpys there are the better chance of it creating new heads and thus growing healthy.....a reproducing zoanthid is a healthy zoanthid

That sucks, it all melted? I saw the frag set aside for you (last Sat.) and one of the polyps on it was open and looked really good.

Go big my friend. Single polyp frags are just silly......you are probably doubling or tippling your chance for disappointment.

It would be 3 polyps or nothing for me. And if you absolutely can't afford more morphs find a friend to buy the other morphs and when they grow out you can trade back and forth.

Could not agree more I paid 1200 for 8 small frags of zoas never lost one and now they are growing like mad totally worth it considering all the stories I read and hear of the frags I got melting.
