Bangkok....the color variations really aren't very important to the shops, only size honestly. They would even offer a deal if I were to just buy 2 corals. They're not uncommon either...all the shops sell them in all different color variations for about the same price. Btw, this is just some of the live rock he got in last week...

You say you won't be tempted by the color variants now but when you see how incredible some are you'll look at them like pure art! That's not a good reason to just buy a coral but if you want one, of course you should find the perfect colors for you! Don't settle for what your LFS typically brings in and charges 600 because it has a stripe in the middle...I'm talking some really out there combinations! For the price of that supposed Wilsoni, I could get 4 Acanthophyllia corals.
Well, the good thing is I am the one requesting certain colonies, though unfortunately only the LFS can buy them so I don't get that wholesale price, thank goodness for the wysiwyg list, I've found wild colonies are usually only priced by size and not color, at least around here
Yep, never brought a frag in my life! I do get decently sized pieces, as them being wild caught and not fragged, some of my favorites is two 5 inch plates of platygyra, a large branch of nemenzophyllia, and a small cluster of lobophyllia
So many people hobbyists don't know the joy of picking out a truly unique piece (put of all the other unique pieces) that's the perfect piece in your eyes. That's how all the corals, rocks, everything is over here and the fish some shops get in stock you'd never see anywhere else! And for good prices! Hey, if you want to follow me on IG feel free. I just started a new professional account several days ago... @divingdeeperdepths
Wanted to get one until I saw the price, plus the wrasses I'm getting will probably just eat them,
Hopefully they treat it well until you can save up the money! Some lobos we've gotten are incredible as you can imagine! My favorites have to be the Scolys though!Wanted to get one until I saw the price, plus the wrasses I'm getting will probably just eat them,
Also, yes, most of the corals sold here are frags, though you can still get some unique wild pieces, usually only through wholesalers, so I can't personally buy them, for example, this lobo I've had my eye on
Just wish it wasn't $200, been trying to save up for it
(Also not on IG, sorry)
Go for it! Those zoas are beautiful. Also great find with the coco worm!@Reefkeepers Archive I found this fan worm with the rock attached for a great price and was thinking about getting these zoas too since the guy will do a small discount if I get both. Prices are in Thai baht.
$15 USD with the rock!
The zoa rock or the coco worm?
Either...they're costing ne the same each
Over here they would cost around 60-80 USD
Honestly, I wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't attached to the rock probably. I like when they're held in place.
