if you're interested in the way overpriced acan. lord, there's a really good article in www.reefkeeping.com online magazine articles written by eric borneman and anthony calfo. it'll make you think before spending money on them unless it's a frag from a fellow reefer not trying to gauge out your eyes. maybe about 10-20 of use should go in on buying a nice colony and frag it up.

I remember when a new source of Ricordea was identified from Venezuela several years ago. Harvesting of them from Fla. had been outlawed for several years and when the new supply hit the market it was unbelievable. They were selling the rocks with ricordea by the pound. As I recall they were about $25/lb. Like the article says, its all about trends and fashion.

Wonder how many old timers are kicking themselves in the butt for paying a lot of money for Xenia????

I remember in school you couldn't buy Guess jeans for under $100 and now you can get them at TJMax for $15 or $20........

Supply and Demand............it's what makes the world revolve around the USA.

Hey............Start wearing that Thong to meetings and maybe you can make that a fad, drive the price of MAAST Thongs way up and set the clubs financial future for life!

LOL

No one will show up for the meetings, especially since it was a woman's thong and about 10 sizes to small. Not a pretty image.

Now that I have left you with that idea, I will go back to work on my tank.
