I mean, I have tried this a few times in the past. To appeal to the "one thing I can't stand is the name game" crowd. But it always seemed to crash and burn. However valiant my efforts were, the noise made about my offerings was barely audible over the sound of the clicketing crickets. So I'll confess I haven't bothered in years. The masses wanted names and I gave you names indeed! But I am a member of this forum and I am definitely not blind to the recent rash of posts scoffing at prices and jab after jab at the "name game" and so on.
So yeah, I've got tons of aquacultured stuff without any names yet. For those of you not interested at all in "silly names" I hear you. I really do. In fact, the deeper the naming of coral has gotten over the years, the utterly less serious I've taken it. But alas, acquiescing to the roars of the market for names, names, and even more names no matter how absurd or ridicules I could make them, that's the game I have been playing for years now. Because there's no other way to put it. I have learned, along with the hordes of other vendors, that the vast majority of reefers prefer to buy Acropora with names attached to them. It's that simple.
Having said that, I thought I'd try something different one more time and dangle some low hanging fruit in front of the vocal masses that have voiced no interest in sps with names.
It's an 8 pack of Acropora at 25.00 a frag. Just like the "good old days". Right? This is all stuff I have had a long time now and have even sent out in a few battle boxes over the years with generic names. But for whatever reason have not really marketed them at all yet. Now I'd be more than happy to keep them all "unnamed" and eventually add them to the site under the labels I've given them below. But that will ultimately depend on the performance of this thread lol. Is this whole thing seeming a little facetious, even gimmicky? Maybe stirring the pot a little? Yeah, I think so and if you want to let me have it please feel free. But if there's just one person out there that wants this one, I guess I'll be satisfied. This definitely doesn't mean I'll quit playing the name game altogether either. That I'm pretty sure of. At least for a while...
