lunulata Posted August 10, 2008 They look a lot better in real life. For some reason my camera just washes everything out. Poor old camera that I've dropped too many times.. :-( Quote Link to comment
warhol1 Posted August 11, 2008 When shopping for corals you need to search and look out for EVERYTHING. Check every local fish stores inventory go home then compare prices and see which ones you liked best. I will give you an example about choosing wisely. One LFS was selling orange florida rics for $19.99 a frag (2 mouths) while another was selling the same exact thing for $49.99 and the two stores where no more than a 15-20 minutes drive apart.

lunulata Posted August 13, 2008 I got mine from a hobbyist who was selling some frags. They were each $10. Is that a high price? The corals that his frags came from looked really healthy and huge! Quote Link to comment
lunulata Posted August 13, 2008 Oh and in response to DrCooper, it's Tonga branched rock. I hear they've stopped importing it, though. I love it. I think it looks really dramatic and my sixline loves swimming through the holes and tunnels all day long. But I think it might make it hard to place corals because there is limited lit space compared to rock with more flat spots. Quote Link to comment
