$3 blasto wellsi colony!

[sufunk]

A few months ago, i was at my local pet world getting water and saw this rock in a dirty fish holding tank. I dont think they even realized there was coral on it but i could see 7 REALLy small bright green polyps. The skeleton looked like blasto wellsi so i asked how much and they said $3 for the rock. Wasn't sure they were blastos for a few weeks but after 2 months of feeding they are definitely blasto wellsi

A few weeks after i got them and still really bright green

The next week, still not sure if they were blastos

Still not positive how what color they will end up but for $3, bigtime steal for me

Yup, can't go wrong for $3

Yeah, considering what some people are paying "per head" for corals today, it was a pretty good deal.

They aren't exactly aussies, lol, but you DEFINITELY can't beat 43 cents per head for blastos!!!
