Ricordea

[Questin]

Ok, I want to get some Ricordea, anyone else? Where is a good place to get some?

 

[LarryW]

check out the rics @ extremecorals dot com

 

[roushracer]

I've always wanted some, but could never find it at a decent price.

 

[Questin]

woo, extremecorals seems to be way too expensive

 

[LarryW]

yeah they seem a little high, but they have some sweet ones...

 

[The Haj]

How many are you hunting for?

 

[roushracer]

I just want a couple.

I'd go in on a GB if someone finds them reasonably priced...

 

[reefkoi]

Reasonably priced ricordea? I think $20-$30 per polyp is the reasonable price for the bright ones everybody wants
I know the club did a group buy a couple months ago and they were really small. I have bought a few small colonies but always paid $20 or more per polyp.
You get what you pay for with these things.
Heres a pic of my oranges just to get you excited

20ish is fine, it's just most I've seen have been $50+ which is more than I wanted to spend on one.

I keep hearing of all these deal where people are getting rocks with 3 or 4 or even more on them for $30-40 bucks, so I was holding out trying to find one of those...

 

[reefkoi]

Yeah that would be a good deal. I think the rocks with a few on them are cheaper per polyp than individuals usually. You end up with babies on there that they don't usually charge for.

 

[Huhhhhh]

I hear Eric D has the hookup on these things give him a PM

I need some new colors. I have the suporplain brown ones, and the pink ones with a blue boarder. So I want liek the blues and greens, and umm yellow? I have not seen yellow now that I think about it. I got the Pink one from Blanes, and it has gone from 1 to about 15. But I need more of these.

 

[bigsittingrock]

pink? A hot pink? if so I would trade some of my green and orange ones for one of yours, if its hot pink.

 

[Questin]

It's pretty pink, but really attached to the rock

 

[lfduty]

I have some that aer green if you want some

 

[murfman]

Questin, I have blues and oranges, if you want to trade.

 

[Questin]

Hmm, I may need to try to get some off that rock, but that will be a problem. Guess I will see what I can do.

 

[reefkoi]

I have noticed they do multiply in my tank but its slow. Has anyone ever scraped on off the rock and re-attached it to another? My method has been to let it grow onto nearby rocks but its a slow process.

 

[murfman]

Christo, I just fragged a blue one off of the rock in my 125 and put it in my Pico. I set another rock on the edge of it and since it's in a lower flow area, seems to have attached. You can always use bridal veil
