They apparently used to be $60, now they’re $100+

There was a Hawaii ban which drastically reduced the supply, which made yellow tangs scarce and a rarity. High demand + low supply = high price.

WHEN PLANNING CORAL PLACEMENT, WHAT USUALLY WINS? THE FUTURE COLONY, OR THE NEXT FRAG?

  • I leave plenty of open space for large future colonies

    Votes: 3 27.3%

  • I plan for growth...but occasionally squeeze coral into tight spaces

    Votes: 4 36.4%

  • I try to balance future growth with variety now

    Votes: 4 36.4%

  • I fit in as many frags as I reasonably can

    Votes: 2 18.2%

  • One more frag always wins! Future me can solve the problem...

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • It depends on the coral and how quickly it grows

    Votes: 1 9.1%

  • I squeeze 'em in! Survival of the fittest, baby!!

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • I’m already out of room, so apparently we know my answer...
