Christmas Gift Ideas - Under $200

Chipper1978 · Nov 17, 2020

So my parents are asking me to provide them with Christmas gift ideas. Lucky me! I feel like I already have all the essentials, but perhaps I am missing something that would be great to have. Perhaps something that I would not think about spending my own money on, but would be a great gift to receive. I want to stay away from things that get used up regularly (e.g., salt, reagents, etc.) Any good ideas under $200?

I use christmas presents to ask for corals that are usually outside of the price range for corals that I like lol. I defiantly recommend finding a super nice 200$ frag and just go for it

Some that come to mind:
(1) gift card
(2) microscope to learn more about your reef (good for IDing some things)
(3) Subscription to Reef Nutrition live Tigger pods or Apex pods to give your fish live feed
(4) Blender to make your own fish food
(5) Subscription to Coral magazine
(6) Books on reef keeping from those well known in the industry

Hope that helps :)
