Aussie black torch

Corals grow every day there is alot of supply. Just None coming out the indo or Australia for wholesalers to sell to retailers.

Supply in the economic sense of the word typically refers to current market conditions, which can be (but don’t have to be) linked to actual material scarcity at the physical level.

Yes I agree, I wasn't coming at you or anything. Was just giving my opinion as to there is a bunch of them, they're just high priced because they aren't coming out the original countries as of RIGHT NOW. Hopefully and most likely that changes soon and the prices come back down. That's when I will buy my euphillia(spelling?) wish list.

Got it. The areas that banned collection, especially Indo, are in a major major natural euphyllia zone (all coral generally). Other than Oz, their doesn’t appear to be another comparable export nation to step in. If Indo doesn’t repermit wild collection again I don’t see market conditions improving much if at all. At this point they won’t even permit mariculture export. So yeah, your seeing mostly the market results of Indo, but it’s also partially the result of the destruction via bleaching/sediment/dredging of many many other reefs over the past few decades (many areas are so damaged there are no LPS to export, even if it was permitted).
