All is Fair in Love and Coral: How often do you buy new coral?

[gbroadbridge]

Last time I bought coral was a couple of years ago.

I have no room for new coral, I have give the stuff away.

What size tank is that? I like how you’re at the “welp! no room left on the sand, no room left on the rock, guess we’re hanging frag racks off the glass!”

It’s a 75. So 48 L x 21 H x 18 W

I have 100 gallon custom made tank I’m working on getting set up. It’s 48 x 22 x 22

I generally put all things I can on frag racks till I can figure out where I want them…..but yeah I’m kinda out of room…..new tank should fix that! Just got all the rocks in to do the aquascape…next step is smashing rocks to build that scape!!

Just a few corals, nothing like @Reefing_addiction , although i did get some nice pieces (nice for 40 dollars and me anyways) the green goni, the smooth skin and the two pieces of red acro

I don't even remember when I bought my last coral.

I’ve been good about not buying a ton lately…the last ones I bought were about a month ago. But before now, I was like “oh hey, I’ve been wanting that coral! Oooo! Look at that, it’s on sale! I must get it!…but the shipping costs more than the coral, I’ll add 5 more corals then problem solved!!!”

I’ve been accumulating coral for aquaculture for the last few years. Just got another box in today.

The oldest coral in my possession is 22 years old. It is a plate that was itabout half as big as my pinky fingernail when I found it as a hitchhiker in a frag of zoas. I love when a colony of SPS goes flattop because it is trying to grow out of the water. Thats just me. It is about growing the stuff not having the stuff.

What coral? I don't know what your talking about

 

[Timfish]

I've gone years without buying anything then buy a dozen or so.

You have an amazing tank reefing_addiction

Thank you! You’ll get there. About three years ago my tank crashed and I was busy enough that I just let it sit, for about 2 years before I started adding coral back. So it ran pretty much coral free. The tank is 5years old now.

And I thought I had a problem (or rather the solution!)!

8ft 300g as you all should know by now as much as I brag about it

I bought $400 worth of new coral yesterday, An aqua cultured Dragon Soul torch, and 3 mushrooms. Last time I bought a piece of coral was several months ago. I slowed way down as my tank is filling in nicely and I only have a few spots left I feel I can add coral too and I want to bring in some color I do not have. Picked up a beauty of a yellow mushroom yesterday, and a neon green one too.

That being said any time I walk into a store has coral for sale I am looking to see if they have something I have not seen, or rarely seen. Guess I am always a potential customer
