Been eyeing this for a while. I have a small green sinularia frag Vinh gave me but some of these colonies look like they are decent size. Wondering if you can get these for similar pricing to what these people have as I'd rather buy local.

100 bucks for 4 fair sized frags plus shipping? Dunno just wondering what you can get from your wholesalers.

How's that green leather frags doing? As for the color, it depend on your lightning. Those thing do change color to adjust to your light ( ditching or adding more zoo.) I have two colony that split in half, the color from the back one look different from the one in front.
A green leather can turn peachy looking.

Vinh, it's going fine except that I think I should have used needle and thread instead of a ruber band, I constricted it a little and it split in half. The small piece is at the bottom of the tank where I can't get to it. All the other frags are fine some in my larger reef but the ricordeas, encrusting gorgonians and one of the zoo colonies went in my nano. Am also trying the hydnophora frag in there at the top of my rockwork. Curently have about 60 watss PC half blue/white and am switching o one of those powerquad fixtures shortly(96 watts). That palau tree that is in the one picture is awesome looking, I know lighting has some to do with it but it's still a very green specimen.

The one that I have, and the one Tim have in his house could color up like that depending on the lightning condition. And the leather's mood.

Oh, I don't think I could let you have them for the $50.-$60 price range like they have them though. I'd feel like a thief. Maybe half that price.

yeah that palau tree he's selling is gorgeous. in the pictures at least, I'd like to see one in person. I should probably quit buying corals for a while lest I turn out like Vinh! I think my next purchase is going to be a custom tank from Bill - looking at something along the lines of 36"x36"x36" cube with a center overflow.

Dont let Vinh make light of the green tree corals he has. I had them before, they are the greenest I have ever seen. they are the exact same as tims as well I believe.
You want to see how green they are, keep them under blue PC or VHO.
