You never paid a $100 for a coral?

The prices I saw on them in Edmonton was more than fair.

A large frogspawn at any lfs will be from 60-150 easy.

Orange is rare. I got the orange torch for the same as the regular ones. $35 at Aquarium Illusions and that was more than fair. AND MAN ITS AWESOME UNDER ACTINICS! I would have paid more!

Come on Greg you know rare = more cost.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

And worth the money. People pay what they feel is fair or they don't spend it.

Theyre fairly expensive even from the wholesalers - maybe a bit less direct, but I don't know. I bought a 6-head orange frogspawn for $120 from Sea U Marine which is a great price.

Sure. Sounds personal.

I paid 35. Great price. And just to mention a plug for AI... The orange colonies they have are huge and amazing. Well worth the price.

Everyone has an opinion. No worries.
