i believe $10 ill warn you though they can be more trouble then they are worth, they tear apart corals looking for nems and if you have aiptasia its an easy way to spread it as they will use the nems for their poms but that said they are quite nice

I am confident enough that aiptasia won't be a problem for me (aquacultured rock and no pest) but "tear apart corals" is a thing to be worried about :| I guess I better pass on them and get more sexy shrimps

everyones gets it eventually pest free rock or not, if you buy corals theres always a possibility of it hitch hiking. i dont think i know one long term reefer who can say they never had it :P

I bought dead, man-made rock to build a larger system. The starter system was free of aiptasia.. I am now fighting a small outbreak of them.
I was careful in introducing anything to my tank (well... I dipped them in Lugols and Hypo if they were zoas/palys).
I dont think you can really remain pest free. Welcome to building a new ecosystem!

Oops.. sorta hijacked the thread there..

I bought fish and CUC from J&L when I first got into salt. Good experience. I'd be in for an order.
