    Not really Tracy, Check out the cultered pages. Alot of them are 60 and under. Heck you can get 3-7 inch colonies of acros from them for 80 lol.

    that's not bad at all, i really cant wait until i get more coral in this tank, just because it lacks soooo much color, im also going to try my best to stay away from green corals, i have too much of that color in the tank :lol:

    lol I have all kinds of colors in mine, IMO SPS have some color, but LPS has more of a color variety to choose from between the species I guess, SPS seem to be blue purple and green at least with most acros.

    try to find a local reef club tracy, you can get frags of anything you want for 20-30 from a swap... if you take a few branches of your birdsnest there then you can actually make some money!

    hmmm thats a good idea and making money off my birdsnest would be pretty cool, i have noticed its been having a growth spurt and the branches are getting longer so maybe its time to frag taht thing

    We all just swap for free at ours. $2 for live rock $1 for base. Good times right there. Nobody is greedy

    dang thats a good deal.

    my lfs is still setting up the new store they only had half of the store open two weeks ago, but their few coral tanks they had were super nice, i love going there cause i never know what to expect, sure is a slow build, to bad that arent having a LFS build thread like ColoradoReef is doing
