pricing acans

Mr.Firemouth · Sep 7, 2007

Hi Guys,

I have this 6-7" acan and am wondering what it is worth?
All the prices are in the frag range so what is colony value?

Mr.Firemouth · Sep 9, 2007

There is 51 polyps on this guy. Any ideas on price/value?

DO you have a beter pic, I am haveing a hard time making out the polyps and the color? Maybe a top down?

you can get large colonies from mr. coral for about $100.00. large brightly colored aussie colonies will be about $50 to $75 more.

I'd like too see some of these (brightly colored ) aussies colonys for that price.

I will have to move it to get a better pic.
I don't usually see these purple ones when I am out.

Most of those on that website are grade B, which usually sells for $5-$15 per polyp. Grade A is usually $20 per polyp or higher, and ultra could be $20 to $100 per polyp.

I couldn't even ID that as an Acan from the photo, so try taking some more pics of it.
