Ha, tell me about it. Our sources for highend corals on this side of the Rockies are weak or inconvenient at best - so we have to look across the country. Being one of the West Coast suckers that gets to pay hefty shipping sucks. Either shipping is as much (or more) than the frags you want, or you're looking at buying $300+ to get free shipping, or you need to spend a ton of time organizing a group buy (which for me directly results in a cost) - none of the options are appealing. So even if you do manage to find high end corals, they carry highend pricing and them some on top of it.

Tell you what - if you can figure out a way to get those sexy zoa frags here without breakin' the bank, I'll make sure you're selling enough of them you can bring in multiples of the frags to speed up the grow out rates.
