JRocha said:its just a zooanthid. they are not worth much and the color isn't that great. you would have to be a fool to pay 300 for a single polyp. the person who first brought them into the trade probably only paid 10 bucks for a whole colony of them. if you buy one, grow them and devalue them and start getting them sold for what they are really worth. I will pitch in like 20 for the sake of devalueing them.
Agree, a fool pays $300 but if he grows it and sells it let's say $150 each head then the title should be "businessman" with huge profits
Couple years back the craze for the blue tubs; I saw them around $25 per each !! today you find them for $2 or $3 per head but the ones who took the plunge at first made quite a few dollars. When I bought the blues I believe I paid $7 to a college kid in Berkeley ~2 years ago, the little sucker would not grow on me and finally I see some babies coming out. I got also one from Charles that is already growing three heads.
I'm in to chip some $ in but can also wait for them to be lets say $10 per polyp ?? I'm sure something else will show up and beat the price of $300, after all, is the land of opportunity...
