Most people will say that a coral is worth whatever you're willing to pay for it, but honestly that color cap is fairly commonly for sale in smaller frags.

I agree it's "common", however I would say a 8" x 9" one isn't. Typically you see people selling $10 frags of it here and there. For a colony that size, I think $70 is fair. Heck, I have spent more money on single zoo/paly polyps and waaaayyyyy more on 1" x 1" chalice frags.

I agree, it has showpiece proportions. It will grow into a monster showpiece in no time.

Definitely a decent price for the size you got....nice mini colony I like the top down view too.

$70 is a great price for what you got. I have seen pieces of about the same size go for double that. Great looking piece and money well spent.
