Illuiix Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 It's actually a decent grower! They're brighter than my ARC Poinsettias. I had a lot of fun when you let me choose the pieces for you. It was pretty hard only choosing 4 things, even though they were mine... LOL You have a picture of ARC Poinsettias or bowers? Which is worth more, also comparing to the hyper phoenix. 2 Quote Link to comment
daletu Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 Bottom left good sir! Looks really nice! The color and pattern of plate coral always give me calmer feel to it. 2 Quote Link to comment
brad908 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Haha... if you can mentioned someone is looking for a true yellow hammer / torch coral when you talk to him thru forum that will be great. He hasn't reply my email but probably because that yellow hammer is sold. I pm'd. Since he handpicks all his corals, I'm sure he can get you something awesome. 2 Quote Link to comment
1.0reef Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Yeah, you're definitely right. But I think the question was what piece do I have was the most expensive as just one piece vs growing out. Like as a frag, which one is the most expensive. True.... Also some people on R2R want to give some Krakatoa palys to you to get rid of the hype and let you grow them out lol 1 Quote Link to comment

I have to be honest with you, when you first picked the Hyper Phoenix I was kind of hesitate a lttile and think... really? that thing looks dull to me! But wow it's completely different story after I see it in person. It's so bright! 2 Quote Link to comment

I think the CB Bowsers are still around $100pp and the DC Bowsers are like $150-$200 still. Both "Bowsers" don't have nearly enough yellow/orange throughout the body for me to want them yet. Might as well just get a Candy Apple Red for $20 for about the same thing. That's what I did LOL 3 Quote Link to comment

buddythelion Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Yep lol True Yeah but I've seen hobbyists selling them for $50-$75PP Those are the cool peeps! Def the price they should be since those ones just look like CARs. Hahaha... I saw that you were trying to explain a little! It should look a lot brighter than the photo you posted! One day if get Bowsers, make sure you sell me a couple for good price! Why would I need to take a new photo when I've got one right here? 5 Quote Link to comment

buddythelion Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 How does that get rid of the hype? Doesn't that make it more hyped? Lol Because they know that I'd probably just sell it at $100pp. I'm like the anti-hype/hype hater on r2r lol. 3 Quote Link to comment

Illuiix Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Dale you don't need any more orange/ red similar looking palys, you got the hyper Phoenix palys already. 2 Quote Link to comment
buddythelion Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I got them in a trade with Joe Knows Reef. I ended up with like 2 uncolored baby nubs. They melted pretty fast. No one should ever sell/trade babies, but I did take the risk thinking I could grow them. Only wanted them because they were lineaged back to Jay Painter/ Aquarium in Motion which was the 1st and IMO only real Bowser. 3 Quote Link to comment
1.0reef Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Damn, that sucks! Aquatic collection has some SA WEEETTT palys on ebay, there's a link in my thread.... Quote Link to comment
