I haven’t bought an acantho since 5 months ago

[VintageReefer]

Last week, I swaggered into WWC wearing my neon pink pants—pants so outrageously bright they could probably charge a solar panel. Naturally, I was expecting their acantho selection to rise to the occasion and dazzle me into submission. Instead, I found myself underwhelmed, the undisputed champion of fluorescence in the room. Honestly, it felt like a betrayal; I came ready to spend money, and their corals couldn’t even compete with my wardrobe.

Still, I didn’t leave empty-handed. I picked up the Tangerine Tango Master Scoly (because how could I not with a name like that?), some XL WWC High Voltage Polyps (hoping they’d provide the shock factor my tank clearly needs), and a melanarus wrasse, who spent approximately five seconds in the tank before dramatically vanishing into the sand like an angsty teenager slamming a door.

Now, let’s address the real tragedy here: it’s been seven whole months since I bought an acantho. Seven months! That’s practically a lifetime in reef-keeping years. I’ve resisted temptation, weathered disappointment, and stared longingly at less-than-stellar options. At this point, I’m not even a reef enthusiast—I’m a monk on a coral-buying fast. Someone, please, alert the Vatican. If WWC doesn’t up its game soon, I might just canonize myself: Saint of Neon Pants and Acantho Abstinence

You doing it to yourself. The best acantho aren’t in Florida. They are here…

You are a specialty buyer, looking for specialty coral, and you need to order from the acantho specialist.

Take the leap of faith, he will send pics and videos. I feel the only person who has the level you want, is BSA

You’re safe from me. I’m not buying it unless someone bites and gives me 637.50 lol

Sorry about your loss. I lost a 8” acantho a few months ago. A 24k with mint accents. Never seen anything like it

I can also vouch for Ben at BSA. Outstanding livestock and customer service.

Give BSA a shot. He seems very reputable based on his responses and customer reviews in this thread. He seems to have a very nice collection.

I’d trust him. He seems very honest based on his responses in this thread.
