Jesse Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 When you buy coral do you buy frags or colonies? Is there is reason why? discuss... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Both. I plan on buying colonies where I want to fill spots immediately. And frags of the stuff I can’t afford to buy colonies of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Fraggenstien Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 I tend to buy frags, because they're cheaper, and usually if they do well it doesn't take long to grow a colony. if they don't do well, I wasted a frag instead of a colony. Unless we're talking slow growing LPS, then a colony makes sense if you want a nice show piece. Joe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sevitz5 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Frags simply based off costs. I know in a years time I will have a colony for the price of a frag. Joe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AspiringLobophyllia Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 I don’t mind buying larger trachy/lobos/scollys but everything else I’d rather do a frag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buk Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Most sps are much hardier as frags and less susceptible to rtn. But yeah I agree on the softy and lps front. It's really dictated by the price for me and how bad I want something. Most lps and softies that I really want are extremely hard to find to begin with so if I can find any size piece I'm usually likely to jump on it.

Jesse Posted March 7, 2020 Author Share Posted March 7, 2020 I’m in the same opinion on buying as frags. There is something about watching them grow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
