    Pink birdsnest. Found out I can get a locally grown red planet for $40.

    Thanks all! I hope it keeps it color under the new halides.

    Is $40 a good price for a red planet frag?

    Assuming its about 1" or more, I'd snag it. Usually retail for 80-100 for 1-1.5".

    Yes. From locals here you can get them for 20-30, on the net 50-70.

    Quite the range in pricing lol.

    I see they go for anywhere from $20-$100. I'll wait a little bit and see how the other 2 acros, and 2 seriatoporas, a the several montis deal with the reduction in salinity, new lighting, massive water changes (50% total) and extra flow (all done this week) before buying.

    I'm actually pretty good friends with my LFS, so he will probably give me a generous piece.
