those are tiny.
I know. Some of the largest bonefish and snook I have landed have been on 1/4" or so flies. Even large tarpon will hit a small fly, but their jaws are usually too tough for flies that small to get a good set. Have to step up to 1" or so for them.

Hey new idea. Instead of frag plugs can we just use soft rock like pumice? Think about it growing zoas on pumice means you can frag zoas and softies easier with just a razer blade. You can sell one polyp of zoas instead of frags for cheaper

People already sell single polyps. For vastly more than they’re worth.

id want to see what the pumice leeches out before I put it in a tank. And why not just use rock rubble instead?
Because for the people who don't have access to a saw you can just cut a frag like that

Nope and don’t need a saw for rock rubble. Razor blade to cut zoa and then and old wore out razor blade to score the rock. Break at score and done. Works like a charm.

The philosopher in you should see the flaw in this immediately.

If a provider and consumer are agreeing on a price and transacting in the trade of goods or services for a set monetary compensation, then be worth of that good or service is equal to the compensation.

I think the subjective nature of "Value" makes it both a very difficult philosophically, and a fun thought experiment.

I just wanted to bust your chops

Is this what it’s like to be a reefer? Went to my vape shop to grab a delta cartridge and the owner has a 55g and stand he wants to give me. The lady who came in after me said she’s got two tanks sitting in her yard she wants to get rid of

Seriously. Wut.
