For that size i would say that is a good price. I have seen them in the store for 5"-6" for a little less than that $175-$200 ish.

I suspected the carpet was overpriced, some of the other stuff sounds nice tho.
Anything to help a fellow reefer build his tank with nice stuff is good.

hiya levi long time no chat.

The guy did have pictures up before, I'm not sure why he took them off.

This guy is out to lunch. Purple carpets are rare but not more than say $100-120 rare. And $100 for zoanthids? $60 for ocellaris?? **$80** for candycane?? Puhleeze. A sucker is born every minute though, he might get away with it.

Yeah I was kind of thinking it was expensive, when he had pics of the corals up before the red and green candycane was quite nice actually, but not $100 nice.

What's sadder though? If he was just a little less on the asking price for the carpet I'd be all over it, unreasonable asking price or not. :lol: Maybe he's expecting offers and the whole negotiation-dance or something. Too bad the pics are down I would have loved to see the carpet.

Uh ya!! Way overpriced. He wants (high) LFS prices, and you just don't get LFS prices in private sales.
