Hey
Random question

After watching the Bhama Llama Coral yt I was that long polyp leathers are sought after.
I live in Japan, and the Sarcophyton sp. leathers are actually quite cheap here at 18.5$ for a medium size non fluorescent piece

I was wondering if it is that cheap in other places and if theres a big market for them
It seems like they are out of stock in many online stores

Also is Sarcophyton = Weeping willow?
Or just long polyp that looks like one

Thanks :)

i believe the bahamallama weeping willow is a "true" weeping willow, i believe as classified by Ryan from reefbuilders.

it is actually somewhere "rare" around these parts because the only way to tell if it "real" is to cut flow and see if the long polyps droop over the crown very much like a weeping willow tree. some sell them much higher than the 18.5$ you mention.

innappropriatereefer on yt has one from bahamallama.
