Fjw has lots of good lps. Acans, scolys, etc.... Color was awesome
TNT has lots of sps and much of it is home grown.
Citypets has nice zoas, Ora Stoney corals, and probably the widest selection for the best price. Many of their frags seem like chopped up wild colonies tho. Some take forever to start growing. As far as the 5$ zoas tho. I have found named zoas in there, along with multi polyp Lps like candy cane.
Fish gallery is a good place to buy fish, but I have never bought coral there except the odd frag.
I am sure there are other great stores, I have just not been to them yet. Dennis does a great job. He has some of the cleanest displays in town. Citypets does a great job, but you need to destroy aptasia and others pests here and there. Inspect closely.

I would think the value goes up if it is grown and sold by the same person. What are the odds of introducing something like redbugs to your tank? TnT does the same thing. They have a couple things in the nice sps display they sell 2" frags of for 70-80$. Oregon Tort was like 80$ an inch at one point. I have seen frags in other stores for 30-50$, but the stuff at TnT was homegrown. The frags in the other store were under different lighting and had less intense color. 14k vs 20k. I also got mojanos from one. That is why the premium can be justified.

They were under different lighting. I can't imagine why the colors were less intense.
A fool and his money are soon parted.
If they can move their product at that price, more power to them. You and they can't prove and guarantee that they are "home grown" and pest free.Last edited by alexrex20; 07-09-2012, 01:41 PM.
