mucho, nobody could say it as good as you.
Does anyone have pics of "LE" polyps?
- Thread starter MUCHO REEF
- Start date
Me too, I have never seen an LE polyp. I would love to see one. All of the corals mentioned above are monderful species though.
Steve marketed LE corals as they were once very limited. But with the hobby changing so much and with the importing of corals changing so much, Is there really an LE coral. I think not. I have plenty of corals that I spent way too much on, but that is a personal choice. I used to love the older pieces that took me awhile to find, but now, a coral that gets transhipped gets mad a LE 3 months later. I paid more a piece that I new would respond to certain husbandry.
I am burned out with the whole name game and every Dick, Jane, and Larry selling LE corals that are not or ever been on Steve's site. That is his gig and he is nice guy. Why don't people get there own gig?
Wonderful shots Mucho. Me Likey

Oh, i didnt know it was a joke hahahahaha.
BUT if there was one polyp that only had 13 others like it, and it wasnt cool looking and sold for a dime a polyp, none of us would hear about it.
I bet the most Limited/rare/hard to find polyps are ugly, thats why no one ever notices that there are so few of them available.
because everytime someone gets something stunning or bright, they post it on here, or tell their buddies. They compare prices and want to see how much everyone else paid and where they got it. But no one does that if its a brown zoa with a brownish green skirt, even though that polyp might be the rarest of all.
just a thought.

IMHO' There are no LE zoos, palys, protopalys as bottom polyps readily produce in the aquaria. LE's are hard to get to propagate, not much out there, limited stock etc... plus like LE SPS you carry the lineage over of that specific gene of the coral. It dosnt change, you get what you paid for, it dosn't morph to its different environment like Zoos/palys/protopalys. ALL morph and change in different aquaria. the same polyp in my tank when placed in another tank MAY change to another look, color or pattern.
LE's can't really be placed on our zoos. but hard to get like maybe a true OPE' and some of the harder to get polyps out there.
Maybe we can name it ( Hard To Get ) HTG's instead of LE's.

Posted the PD's and NGs' because he asked for them in the original thread.
Still curious to see some LE polyps if anyone has some to share.
Thanks
Thanks
I need to know what I'm looking for, that's why I'm asking. Do you happen to have some by chance?
I'm confused. If you agree with the many others who feel the same way, then you wouldn't have any LE's. We agree that LE doesn't exist, correct? So you're saying that you have a Limited Supply?

That's what I thought. I agree with you.

Yes you are confused I guess....
I agree about the LE term being over used and not really valid when it comes to zoas and palys, but I based what I purchased and traded for on if I liked them or not. If i liked them I got them. If I didnt, I left them alone.
YES I agree with you about so called LE palys, not really being LE, but just because I own them and some people call them LE doesnt mean I think I have LE's or agree with the term LE being used..
And no I dont think I have any LE's by your definition...
