After a few years of collecting and being familiar with most or all of the chalice names I might sell a few and buy a nice ultra rare peice. I think those $1500 pieces are for people who just don't get the same feelings they use to looking at a coral they have seem a thousands of times and in everyone's tank. As an exame when I was a newbie I would get excited to see plain old mushrooms and other simple corals and now you couldn't pay me to have them take up precious real estate in my tanks.]]> Mon, 14 May 2012 14:33:13 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=56454&PID=466850&title=monti-question#466850 <![CDATA[Monti question : it takes time to learn about coral,...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=56454&PID=466840&title=monti-question#466840 Author: ch3tt

it takes time to learn about coral, but it is a fascinating subject to study. Yeah if i had a few thousand laying around i wouldn't mind some of those chalices also. However there are other chalices that have pretty amazing color that are quite affordable. ]]> Mon, 14 May 2012 14:00:43 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=56454&PID=466840&title=monti-question#466840 <![CDATA[Monti question : the colors are definitely incredible....]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=56454&PID=466838&title=monti-question#466838 Author: cba191

the colors are definitely incredible.  

Corals are confusing my feeble mind.

I admit I want some of those chalices though.

Those are actually chalices, They are expensive because they are rare and look at the colors, they are stunning! ]]> Mon, 14 May 2012 13:29:49 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=56454&PID=466832&title=monti-question#466832 <![CDATA[Monti question : I&#039;ve been looking around...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=56454&PID=466830&title=monti-question#466830 Author: cba191

I've been looking around and am amazed at the prices of some of these things.  $1500 for a tiny little frag?  What makes these so expensive?  Are they hybrids or something?

This is just an example, but there are tons of threads like this.
