I have a few times but on eBay mainly where the prices are already pretty good.

You should try AquaSD. They sometimes have crazy prices . The big blue grey one that’s below the red was only 50 bucks there on clearance
About half my Gonis or slightly more I’ve gotten from SBB sales. Getting them as no names usually saves a lot of money
after the last day of the Zoanthids sale I am done... I dont even want to try and total it all up... I am ignoring it

ALTHOUGH i think SBB is having a sale end of the month? which is sooo tempting
They are. I’m done with any major sales tho. Between my rent increase and the disaster that was taxes owed to the IRS, I’m done. ‘Sides, my tank is pretty well filled now. I’ll still be hanging around the sale and saying hi here and there

Make a YouTube channel for profit and write off the corals as business expenses

I’ve thought about becoming more openly active on YouTube but I’m not sure if anyone would be interested in listening to my ramblings lol

what killed me at the zoanthids sales was the $5 corals because they were great pieces for $5 but then you have to buy 2 regular ones
Well SBB makes you spend a minimum of 100+shipping to gain entry to the 3 1/5 that your allowed to grab. All live sales generally have some rules on $5 corals, so it can be a slippery slope.

Yeah. I think I’ve spent under 400 maybe twice in the past at an SBB sale. But that being said you can get some pretty insane prices , esp. on the last full day of the sale. The occasional flash auctions Shane throws up can produce some really good deals as well.

Just stream your tank overlayed with yeowling from stray ally cats and it will be a hit. The combination of a serene reef with something as random and completely opposite as those meeeeeeeoooowees will be so stupid it will go viral

How does this work? They post corals and it’s a free for all to see who can buy it first?
With SBB sales it’s the combination of drops on R2R and the complete list of corals is on the SBB website. And yes the $1 and $5 drops can cause a frenzy. Esp since they can be really random times when dropped. Also very low priced non 5ers are dropped at random times. 2 or 3 of my torches are 1/5ers from SBB.
