What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Had to chop the pork again. Didn't realize it had a bone in it. Cleaver didn't seem to mind though.

So 120 for the 4? Seems fair considering adding lot of people charge per polyp and seem to average in the 10-25$ range give or take. If i can buy 5+ heads for 30$ and i like the colors, i wouldn't fret. I'm not big on single polyp frags for like 50$ usually though.
Yes it would 120 for all 4 or 30 each.

All seriousness though, what is this one

The guy I am ordering these from has a really good selection of corals. He is the only person I order online corals from. I have order from him like 6 times. He has great prices and is always super helpful when I have questions. If any of yall are interested in ordering corals from him in the future let me know and I could get you in contact with him. I think he just set up a website so I’ll see if I can get that.

That would be great!

The best way to contact him would be through instagram. His user name is cruzn_aquatics. You could send him a message if your interested in buying something
 
More progress on the pod highway. The glue is low VOC so a fan in the window get rid of the fumes. Of course I forgot a couple fittings, so more progress tomorrow evening.
