WWC in Orlando now has a $10 per frag tank and a tank full of 3 for $10 frags. Yes, $3.33 per frag. Beat that Michigan
Orlando has 13 LFS, all of which have a discount tank full of corals and this time of year the competition is tight. As more growers expand their aquaculture production pricing will continue to decline on the not so rare stuff. The new high end stuff will continue to get more expensive as increased pressure from environmental groups try and stop wild collected corals from entering the market place.
This conversation comes up often and is usually sparked by the desire to have what we can't afford. The bottom line is, it's all supply and demand and if you can market your corals well then you can influence the demand.
