What do you think. It works out to be about $17/polyp I am just starting my zoe garden and this could be an early christmas to myself, the only ones I already have are the AOG. I am not seeing many zoes for sale lately or if so only the trendy ones not some of the older classics which I also like.

I thought about grabbing one of those packs recently too. Todd always has great stuff. Also those pics r almost 100% blue lighting so they are showing great pop.

never more than $5 a polyp and never less than 6 preferably on a piece of L/R Think if your patient(advice I should take myself sometimes) and look to other reef keepers you will find all the above for under $200 I paid $15 a polyp for Three PPE 6 years ago now there available for $20 for 15 or more on a small LR. also adding that many at one time, if there is a problem it would be harder to identify. On the plus side ordering from cherry corals, they may have de buged them, If money is available what the hell, send pics if you do, love to see Zoo's ,my favorite's

I think that is a pretty good deal if they are all zoas you like. Imagine if you tried to get all the zoas you like from different vendors and added up all the shipping. I have bought from cherry corals before too and it has always been a positive experience. If you are the most patient person in the world you could probably find them for a little better deal here or there but then you would be adding shipping from multiple people and a lot of time. IMO that is not worth it. Do consider the fact you are adding a lot to your tank at once though. I think that is a very colorful pack so it would make your tank look really nice.

yea if I could find one or two people on here with the corals i want then fine but I cant everyone is interested in the trendy stuff I just want colorful nice zoes. I cant even find mary janes right now (I love them for the contrast). Also mentioned above by buying from a bunch of people I risk lots of shipping charges and lots of pest possibilities. however if anyone has a grouping of these zoes I would consider it, send me a PM.

If you have patience and build up your collection by scouring the classifieds for a month or two you can get all of that easily for at most half that price, most likely a lot less if you check your local reef club forums on here. As far as pest possibilities you should be qt'ing everything you get in either way...

GRC has over half those. Save ur money and spend it with ur local reefers!

 

[Gamepro_inc]

Ok i am convinced and will be buying from members rather than websites, I just thought i could save by buying in bulk. besides I was waiting till christmas so I can convince my wife its her idea.

Trade before cashing out i always say... Most of it is all common now these days and should be easy to get your hands on..

 

[pluschinatown]

I agree with Friday, Trade what you got and pay for the rest. It saves a lot of money when you pay attention.
