Coral Value

brdracing · 01/05/2009, 01:30 PM

Not sure on this but I am looking for a rough value of 2 pieces of coral
1. 13" Green Monti
2. 12x6" Rock loaded with GSP

Thanks for any info

I give GSP away for free...
Green monti grows like a weed.

I would suggest you trying to trade it with some of your local reefers for some frags of something you want to grow

Don't know but I base mine on what the LFS sells them for and then take off some since the store won't buy them from you at that price and to sell them to other hobbiests I would feel I was ripping them off. Both sound worth some $$ from a LFS perspective.

I was thinking he was selling the rock with the coral, that would up the price. Have to see it I guess.

Hey, off topic here but I see you have 25 years experience and keep you tank around 77. Isn't that low?

Value of those are whatever you can trade for it. But in regards to temperature, I keep mine at 78 F but my alkalinity is much lower than 15

What temp is your tank? Mine spans 77-79 from day to night.

Not to hi-jack..

My tank is kept at 77-78...
77 is more the norm. I let the tank get warmer in the summer, but right now its on the winter temperature schedule.

My alk is that high for all the SPS in the tank.
I see better color with higher alk.
