Can i dive to get corals?

[Coronus]

Not at the last show I went to.. I was hard pressed to get a good coral, under $50. Most were $80 and up into the hundreds.

Message me if your interested. I have sps in the $25 price range.

I am not saying i want the top shelf stuff, but there is only one LFS where i live and it is 45 mins or so,

I stopped by couple days ago and his prices are super high,


I deff dont want xenia or some frags that cost 5-10$

I am not poor but i am not rich, i am a full time student with no job. (Taking 6 class is not easy) lol

But i just want to have a colorful reef, deff want some acros, some zoas, ..

I dont want anything just so i can say ohh i have it. But if i have something really nice i would love to show all of you guys.

The cheapest acros i found here are $25 yes i get that but shipping is like $50

So that $25 becomes 75,

Save up and spread the shipping cost over multiple corals.
Be really cheap and push your cost over $200, or even $100 (live aquaria on a good week) and get FREE shipping.

Or, no joke, spend the money first on Salifert test kits so you don't have to complain a month from now when the $200 worth of acro's you bought die....

You say you want acros...
What lights do you have?
Do you have any idea what PAR they have?
Dosing?
Skimmer?
Is your tank more than 2 months old???

Really?!
You live in freaking Maryland. "There's no local shops."
It's salt water aquariums. "Local" is within 2 hours each way.
You're a college student. And young.
It's called Google. Maybe you've heard of it?

PacificEastAquaculture is awesome. Happy customer.

lol, and you don't have all these fun toys for the same reason I'm still using a 3 year old Galaxy S6.

The new stuff is expensive. So sad.
Boo hoo.


We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming...

Is red sea a good brand for test kits!?

Red Sea, Salifert, and Hanna are all supposedly good. I know one pro (i.e. maintains tanks for a living) who only trusts Salifert. Hanna has digital meters which are very convenient.
