Price on raspberry limeaids

[cook]

I am looking to sell some of my limeaids, what is the going price per polyp as I don't want to rip anyone off.

$3.50 (read tree fitty) is what the loch ness monster said...lol. I wish. I think some have been getting $15-20, when you can find them... Now, for my consulting fee...

 

[cook]

Thanks, I would like to post a pic and see if you guys think this is the correct ID. I do not want to misidentify the zoos. The best pic with my crappy camera, I should stop getting coral and buy a good one. Thanks for the help.

The zoas in my avatar are raspberry limeaids.

 

[cook]

What is the diffrence, they do also have the green mouth I just can't get that close, they are about the size of a lunar eclipse. Keep in mind these are under 20k mh and were lighter when I got them.

Cook,
They could be the real deal, but it's tough to tell from your picture.

Here is what you do, stop trying to get so close with the lens. Get in as close as you can with the picture still being crystal clean. Then snap multiple shots.
Finally, if you have an editing program (photoshop) zoom/crop the picture so it looks like my avatar. That's how I did it.

Also, the zoas in the picture above appear to have a greenish skirt and purple center. RL's have a yellow skirt and pink center.

Good luck with those pics, I'm looking forward to seeing them.

BTW, the picture above was cropped twice.
I don't have the original, but here is the second cropping.

thanks for the tip, had the same problem as cook.

Check these out, looks the same but the frag on the bottom is a Paly. The paly's polyps are the size of a quarter.

another method that works for me with close up macros is to back up from the tank and zoom in until your camera hits the point at which it goes into digital zoom (red box that gets smaller and smaller as I zoom in on mine). Get the pic as clear as you can and get as close as you can. once it is clear and framed, zoom in with the macro function on and you should be able to get a better close up. Doesn't work all the time, but for those of us without SLR...

Cook, Its hard to tell, but if you send me about 5 polyps I would let you know if they are the real deal. :thumbsup:

 

[yoshiod9]

sorry, but i'd say that your zoas are not RLs.

here is my original RL colony:

 

[Reef Junkie]

Man, I cannot wait to get my RL's back again!

 

[gflat65]

Don' they just make you feel all fuzzy inside?

 

[Stixbaraca]

Yeah, they make me feel complete. Is that odd?
I really hope to get them back, they were one of my favorite corals.
