frag purchase

[parrotchute]

so, I've been checking out farmfreshfrags, which offers a good local shipping price - the prices look decent, so I was thinking of getting a few, but I need advice!!

I was thinking of:
A Giant Green Duncan
A smashmouth Micromusa (never really heard of these - good? bad?)
MAYBE a "mini carpet anemone" - I'm very hesitant to go for an anemone, and I don't know if these are "real" or what....

Any advice would be great

micromusa are almost like acans basically. the smashmouth part they just named it that. duncans are cool.. i have a several aussie duncans that im selling.

Feel like I haven't seen you in a bit knuckle!

Not really sure on acan care either, time to break out my coral book..
What color duncans? How much? I might be interested....

 

[XxKnuckleheadxX]

lol ive been here.

 

[XxKnuckleheadxX]

heres the 3 colonies of aussie duncans i got for sell they are a cool coral

 

[Brian_G]

i have both duncans and acans

duncans are really cool i have the purple and green ones. i bought one large head for $15 about a month and a half ago and i already have 6 heads.

acans are really cool. they come in many colors and i have heads that are red green purple and orange all in one head.

i target feed both my duncans and acans every couple of days and they both seem to be really easy to take care of.

How much knuckle?

 

[XxKnuckleheadxX]

15 a head. for living reef members.

I'm prepared to become a non-member if the price is better! :mrgreen:

 

[bjohanson1234]

thats not bad pricing. The LFS sells em for 25-30 bucks a head when they have them in. I might have to try you out once the weather gets a bit warmer knuckle. I just cant imagine shipping something in this sub zero weather.

 

[XxKnuckleheadxX]

put it this way. type in duncan corals. see how much everyone is selling them per head! :)

 

[dcantucson]

I'd like a nice colony of Dendros.

 

[Brian_G]

dendros are sweet. i have 2 heads.

my lfs sells them for $35 a head

arent there different colors? or just the bright orange ones?

 

[dcantucson]

I have only seen the orange ones.

 

[parrotchute]

can anyone weigh in on the mini anemones?

 

[yote]

Which mini anemones?

 

[parrotchute]

"mini carpet anemone"- I'm pretty much leaning towards "no" on that one.

 

[yote]

Those mini carpets grow into BIG carpets.But they are probably my favorite anemones.The only problem with em,is fish usually dont live long around em.
