    So last week I picked up a bunch of new corals. Awesome deals... my closest best LFS has Ricordia Yuma for $80 a head, I paid... $6 a head ($18) from a private dealer... I love my LFS and they have a great variety... but sometimes I really don't understand their pricing strategy on corals.

    let the pics commence! (and help with ID's is appreciated)

    guy here has mushrooms and small ricordia for $2 and no much over $10-15 a head even for rare stuff. He buys big colonies frags them, waits a few months to a year, and sells the results.
