£180 pounds - Single head NY nicks torch 🙂

That jaw breaker has absolutely insane colors. All the corals that you showed were beautiful. Nice job Alex

A week ago i bought a 5 headed frag of a speckled Krakatoa zoas from my lfs and was only £49! They thought it was an utter chaos 😂

That jawbreaker was absolutely stunning, never seen anything like that! Loved the latest video - thank you. 👍

The sunburst anemone is also know as the rainbow bubble tip anemone. Around here, they sell for 90Cad, and are readily available at my lfs. In fact, there's over 2 dozen floating around the reef display tank.

I'd be so afraid of these corals dying from a stability swing, I don't think I'd sleep if I owed one of these

I bought a single head holy grail torch coral the moment my tank finished cycling. 2 years later it has 5 heads now. Love it. I have also an 11-heads hellfire torch from a 5-heads, next to that HG. Holy and Hell sit next to each other ;-P

Great video, some insane prices! I was expecting witty comment after the phrase "vesicle or skin sack" but you had self control for once! 🤣🤣

I've seen similar Anemones sell for $40! I guess your location, location, location actually is what's important!

You can get grand master kraks for under $300. CB just has higher pricing

so true I seen that grand Master kraks go for $176 on cornbread corals auction on ebay.

I have an aqua-cultured, green goblin magic carpet GHA variety that’s near and dear to my heart. But, I’d probably consider fragging for the right price. ;).

That Jawbreaker! where are they - the person who bought it must have killed it

Ahhhh reefza uploaded!

That torch would look good in ur tank lol

That Jawbreaker 😍😍😍

lets not forget i think fishofhex has a coral listed for 1 MILLION :D edit: i checked fishofhex it's not on his site but it was a youtuber that has a million dollar coral listed. maybe it was fishofhex and removed it but the description was something like "if you want to make me a millionaire go ahead. i will probably land deliver you the coral myself"

Any word on how much the red elegance corals will be? Im sure it'll be a pretty penny

Insane prices for small corals, that are unique and beautiful for sure, but whoever buys them are certainly taking a huge gamble, for I take it they’re wild and therefore even if you think you know what your doing, they could still die on you. The saying comes to mind “more money than sense” 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

alex can you do a video on coral placment please 🙏

Hate your Tank Background, love your content

thaks for video

Those are some expensive corals

I was about to skate you for having an anemone as your number one coral! I might still but at least you acknowledged it! 😂😂😂 How about a best looking coral list regardless of price?

Hi I don’t know if you can help me but I bought a pair of clowns 1 week ago, added them to quarantine treated for internal parasites and after a couple of days they were eating, doing 10 percent or less water changes every other day and then when I did a larger water change and added 2nd treatment last night, they have stopped eating today... acting normal swimming but look a little scared and stressed, maybe because of the treatment and heavy water change they are stressed? Any ideas?

I Fell in Love with Cornbred stuff Initially, they definitely have Beautiful Corals, but they over saturate and charge too much. I Hate saying that as I fell Absolutely in Love with some of their Corals new to the hobby. NOT saying they don't have Great corals!!❤️

A Coral is a coral, Kingdom: Phylum: Class. Its is silly Humans that pay these prices that puts their prices so high... BTW Cornbread is one of the highest and others have the same corals much cheaper.

Coral names make me cringe 😂

Put livve rock in my tank and 3 months later that exact Jaw Breaker started growing.. and fast. Talk about luck

Hype hype hype I have moved away from mushrooms they want 20 quid for a plain discoma green calling them rare 😆

1:36 actually I disagree, it's super hard to understand why that coral is so expensive, ok I take that back it's easy to understand it's pure greed mixed with hype mixed with silly reefer mentality of what "pretty" is, but having been in this hobby for well over 25 years I have seen how all of the above has really morphed out of control. And to be fair, I am not jealous of others are willing to pay these prices, but what does upset me a little is the poor divers (and I mean that quite literally) who collected the "original" strain doesn't in any way benefit from the craze of it all.

Dangggg! $$$$

They are only expensive if reefers keep paying those prices. If reefers stop paying, the vendor just has to sit with it. When they make no money the prices will come down.

Well yes this is what they call supply & demand, which is basically how all economies work. If the demand is high & the supply is low the price will rise & vice versa. For some reason people seem to get really upset about this fact but it's just human nature so it's a bit like shouting at the sky for being blue.. it ain't gonna change.

These corals are not unique seen similar corals around for say around £500,especially cornbread holly grail..I got 1 in my tank which is called 24k gold tourch looks exactly the same.lol

I spend >220€ for ALL my corals :D

😯

💵💵💵💵

holygrail is cheap in here

Only in reefing, will people spend insane amounts of money on fragile animals that have about a 20% chance of actually living past 3 weeks. The reason I give that number is two fold. Most people that buy expensive corals are brand new reefers that have no idea how to keep water and the environment the corals need to thrive. Second, you never know how long the coral farm/seller has owned the coral. Could have owned it a few weeks and it didn't ship well and will most likely die in a well kept system. I've spent my fair share for sure, but GOLD is a much better long term investment 😄

I never understood the hype of bounce shrooms. IMO they look ugly, like if they had cancer

this is way off lol polo reef got 1 coral for 20 000 US

Yeah I've discovered Polo since making this video - bet he'd laugh at this vid!

Still wouldn't buy these even if they were priced 80% off. Personally I like my tank to have a natural look. Color on color is cool but I think the reefers that run deep blue lighting with brightly colored crazy colored corals make the whole tank look fake and take away the whole idea of having a slice of the ocean. Might as well get a black light with fake neon corals for the same effect.

is all about the hype .if u fall for it ,then they got u ...all the cornbread ones u said u can get them for the low..from cornbread corals auction on ebay. stay alway from the website ..everything u see on the website u get it low on auction..is all about the hype ,u buy it high then it stay high u give that coral a price tag..don't fall for it happy reefing

Struggling to understand why anyone would pay thousands of $ for a Bounce Mushroom that looks like a nasty skin condition you might see on Embarrassing Bodies?
