I know, I KNOW that there's going to be some mad hate on the price on this one shroom polyp, but if watch the video all the way through I think there's a good argument to be made for why *some* expensive corals are good for the hobby and for coral reefs.

Reef Builders how do you figure exactly? If collectors think they can sell corals for this price they will become just like rhinos, elephants, and so many others. Please explain your logic.

@arringar I think he means that these pricy corals end up in farming/ husbandry type situations as opposed to private collections, which means they're destined to be fragged and sold to the public instead of being squandered, so the value will drop considerably, making 'poaching' far less lucrative.

first thing she is gonna ask for is that shroom in the divorce

I'd kill it first

Sometimes when I hear the prices of some of the rare and beautiful corals it reminds me of the tulip-mania, I have to admit if I had the money I wouldn't mind having an awesome rare coral farming facility, even just for the enjoyment of discovering and propagating these beautiful pieces. Love coral highlights like this, keep it up Jake ;)

Love it!

Nice video. I have always thought creating a reef was like producing a piece of art :)

wow, I want more!

Im a reefer in both methodologies. Breed cannacorals that have 99% pure THC venom. Sting me please and dont call poison control.

From the second I saw the crazy shroom pics yesterday I was mesmerised, had so many questions. I wonder which part of the ocean it originated from? Thank you so much Jake for doing this video. I've often heard confusion amongst Aussies as to what defines a jawbreaker. 👌

Amazing colours ❤️

Great video such a beautiful mushroom

Seeing these corals just makes me think of how my tank will never be on this thpe of level. Been doing this since 1999 and still can't see myself with a tank with a coral that expensive. Wifey would not go for it in any way shape or form lol.

Hey man, it's all about what YOU like! The thing about these crazes is that when the focus is on ONE group of corals, it's off another group, and those corals get much cheaper. However, you'll never have to shell out big bucks for the classic corals that looks great in any light.

awesome stunning color!!

Still waiting to see more of these haha

Do you have any extra Comiquarium Beginner Coral posters? i cant find them available anywhere :'(

Hiii Sir, can you teach me how to maintain Maria thank

Of course I love it!!

That thing is AMAZING but DANG! that is pricey. It still amazes me that mother nature has created these amazing corals.

J'en peux plus de tes coraux !!! Moi j'veux juste un bel aquarium ... Bravo !!!

Would you do a video on how you get corals home when you are at a event like reefapaloza. I would love to see the process of how you store the coral between the time you purchase it and fly home. Would love to also see how you store it while on the plane.

Do you buy them? Along with black corals?

Any update on the shroom?

Blush mushroom coral,excellent colour

Aqui Brasil. Só coral top abraço

I have an amazing bounce mushroom that only a very few reefers are fortunate to have. I, among other bounce mushroom enthusiasts who have this particular mushroom agree that tbis is the most colorful bounce mushroom in the US and puts the WWC OG bounce to shame. I will email photos if I can find an email address for Reef Builders.

Soft corals are costing more than the SPS and LPS corals

I still like the reefkeeping hobby, love corals.. But for 10K yeah, I have lots of other better things to buy or spend on compared to 1 mushroom regardless of looks. But we all know why someone would buy this, is to be the first, to quickly try to propagate it to recoup their money and make more money. PLAIN and SIMPLE.

How much money are jawbreakers worth these days I have about 50 there starting to take over my other mushrooms thinking about fragging them. Mine are like the first kind in the video. Lots of red and green in there.

Gotta say, that mushroom at 1:10-1:15 looked pretty impressive, and sure it's all subjective but I liked that better than most of those jawbreakers. And if I could get a colony of those for $40-60 then oh hell yes please!

Shroom garden with a few of those peppered in. (Divorce eminent)

the sad thing is that corals no matter how pretty they are change colors when placed in different conditions. i hope the parameters are the same so that the color holds.

Are these easy to propagate?

That's a good investment. Wish I bought it. Sell the babies for 5G. Half price, what a deal.

Oh my country 😒🌵🌵

I am kinda old school love a simple bi/tri color discosoma all tho that purple monster is cool as sh!t its just to crazy far as color and that $10,000 price tag the wife would have a killer tank and I would have my dog and my truck after she found out the price that's if she didn't kill me

Amazing, would love to have one, but damn, could you imagine it dying on you?! Better know your shit if you are going to get that, but wow, what a cool specimen that would be, and you could make the money back if you can propagate them.

spot feeding on these?

I'm just glad this one exists, and with a high price tag you know there's going to be a high bounty for collectors to find more

Guys a German Sheppard costs 750-1250 gbp but the most valuable best example of the breed costs 10,000 gbp as the offspring will be more valuable and desired. 20 years time the dogs from that line will be common and normally priced making the breed better. dunno maybe its a shitty example..haha

can you give an example of any coral that was crazy expensive and now goes for 50 to 60 dollars a pop? Most people or shops that culture these animals do it for one thing. to make money. will it go down in price? That make take years. i do not know the grow rate but it can't be that good. Mostly the only way a coral comes down is the want. If it is no more desirable then it goes down. i have a pagoda almost 2 feet across and over 5 lbs in weight and 18 years old but i could not get crap for it even though you never ever see a specimen in full colony mode rarely. no one wants a pagoda coral.

UNLESS . . . it's an investment that will make someone a profit, and that's the territory some of these high dollar corals are in. I know it's off-putting, but I assure you that it guarantees that these corals go into intensive propagation making them more common and affordable on a long enough timeline.
