Reefen bi*#hen kitchen! NEW NEW LETS GET IT ON!!!
 
I want to start something ! All ya put out there !
THIS IS THE NEW PLACE THE BIT#*EN KITCHEN!
LETS HEAR IT, STEP UP TO THE MIKE!!!

Every one has a tank , some high tec. Same ghetto
Like mine !

Some can grow corals others say they can .

Now Price ...some of us drive ford ,
Others drive Audi.
Gets to the same places !

$300 for beach bum
1 Head Pink Diamond krack - $200
1 head OG Hallucination - $175
All Great corals !!!!!
H*ll yea ! RR has the S*#T

Now you haters !!
I read your postes you all sell lots of this and that $100,$150,$175 so on
Even Sps frags less than a .5” for $45-$120

There’s a market for high end stuff in all the reefing ,tanks all the way to corals .

Keep growing them the prices will come... like Rastas , utter chaos.
Ether you wait till X coral is highly grown out or you will pay for it!

If your not willing to put a $250 single head
OG Hallucination or $650 plus mushroom and put in your tank and be willing to have a strar fish eat it don’t ! Fish too have ate $$$$$of my corals over the years.

YEA YEA YEA , WHAT GETS ME IS ALL THE REEF VULTURES THAT EXPECT A REEFER THAT HAS BOUGHT X CORAL ,THEN GIVE IT UP FOR $20 BUCKS!
THEY LOVE TO SWOOP DOWN ON OTHERS MISS FORTUNE TANKS ,EQUIPMENT,FISH,CORALS.......YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!!

HEY IM ALL FOR GIVING MY FELLOW REEFERS GREAT DEALS!!!!
But not giving them away for nothing !

Lol did you start drinking early this morning?

Razor Ramon 05-29-2018 09:06 PM

Yea fingers are fat for the buttons on the key pad. Lol darn auto correct to!
Sorry if this seems off but it will give a person a place to speak out about what’s going on , instead of jumping on peoples posts and speaking badly about them
as reefers.

This will give you a place to speak your mind .
So speak up if you like .If I could I would toss a bag of siber nuts out there
Just in case some one needs some .

gmann 05-29-2018 10:03 PM

u're all over the place...

you bitching about how expensive stuff is, or the fact that some ppl wanna be ballers on a welfare budget?

Razor Ramon 05-29-2018 11:03 PM

No worries if I was in your area I’d be buying Zoas from you and paying the price you have set out ! Might have a diy reef tank but love buying crazy high end corals .
Love the colours ...I’m true coral hoarder at heart.
Market in Alberta is t like BC!

gmann 05-29-2018 11:28 PM

+1. Would have been disappointed but this thread delivers.

takeastabatit22 05-31-2018 04:39 AM

But same go's for big spenders too. I don't mind paying for nice pieces. But don't Jack up prices on the guys who do spend then post it for half the price the next day. I got a bit frustrated with that last mounth. Or charging full price for potential heads and maybe or should be colors. If your going to charge by colors you should have it colored up for that price. I wish their was more places to by or trade. I know I'm new and just meeting ppl.

This is good Bro vent away !!!!
I can’t justify selling anything that is off in health ,color ect...
We’re all at different levels in this hobbie.
Years ago I just liked the $5-10 bin for corals brown zoas leathers, I just liked see if I could keep them alive. There was no internet , only books that didn’t really help . Look at us now ... we keep wet pets with a little help from our friends .
But that been said yellow Tanges were 25 bucks and queen and emperor angles were only 80-90 bucks.
$100 corals were the size of dodge ball .

Rare and named corals cost $$$, we don’t see corals imported the size of basket balls now you pay by the inch. I know it’s crazy . But we’re not blowing up the reefs any more! Thank God!!!!
Corals that have been tanks for years seem to hang in there when things go sideways.


Here is a read from a local in my area I took out the names but we all know who it is .
Some very important news for M E

Please take the time to read this entire thing as it impacts not only M E but the industry as a whole.

I have a better idea now about what the Indonesian coral issues and to be honest, I am quite concerned that there may not be a quick and easy solution to this. For those that don't know, there is massive corruption throughout the industry in Indonesia for both exporters and government officials. CITES are often used for corals that they were not issued under and other loopholes are often exploited and overlooked by officials for the right amount of money. This current situation is apparently due to that corruption and the problems surrounding it as the Fisheries department is aware of the various issues and is trying to address it.
This could potentially impact the industry in a SIGNIFICANT manner. no Indonesian coral has left the country since the beginning of May and there is no solution in sight.

Indonesia supplies probably about at least 75 percent of the coral in our tanks. Stores are already running out of coral in various places and clearly this is problematic in that there is no new places to replace the supply chain. You could see prices skyrocket for corals in the new future as the demand is not being met by supply.

Realistically, regardless of what happens with this current deadlock in Indonesia, you will probably see the sourcing of wild corals significantly being reduced over the next few years. Which means coral such as brains which take long periods of time to grow and difficult to propagate will be rare and exceedingly expensive.

The industry will need to move to propagation of coral on a massive scale if we want to survive. I will be devoting approximately a third of our new space to growing corals so that we can reduce our dependence from outside sources..I just hope that we have enough time to gather the necessary stock to do so.

I personally think that this move by the industry is an important one and one that needs to be addressed. We do need to conserve and protect our struggling reefs as they are, in my opinion, one of the main basis of life on the planet.

how this impacts us immediately.

Effective May 22 - M E will no longer discount coral until the Indonesian market opens again.
By May 25 - All sale discounts will be removed off our website.

I can't justify selling discounted corals in a time when I am not sure when I will be getting more.

We will continue to discount fish and inverts as they are not being impacted by this coral problem.

Nor will I be increasing the prices of current stock..However, as the situation develops in Indonesia, this may change and prices could skyrocket for certain items.

I do hope that our customers can understand our stance on this matter and we do appreciate your continued support throughout these times.

Sincerley

I though about this a little more .... yup your right
It happens to me weekly because I have such a coral addiction ....
I buy what I like than its on sale at a hughs sale price a week later.
I’ve also found if I don’t jump on the coral that I want it might be gone
And you may never see it again ...
I do hate the gouging but nice stuff still gets the $$$$$ till it growing like weeks in tanks in your area!!!!
Make lots of friends !!!! Don’t be like me and not play well with others!!!
LOL

Razor Ramon 05-31-2018 10:28 AM

These also were some of the first captive bread fish that we could get in the Edmonton area . Bought in 1998 from Petcetra a USA pet store that didn’t make it in West Edmonton Mall.

Here one for some debate .

What do you think .
Bacteria , virus, rouge symbiotic algae , parasite , cancer ?

It

DKoKoMan 06-20-2018 02:01 AM

Not too sure. Looks like it could be similar to a tumor or something.

Razor Ramon 06-20-2018 03:19 AM

Can corals even get cancer?

DKoKoMan 06-20-2018 03:26 AM

no idea!

😀

WarDog 06-20-2018 10:42 PM

When in doubt, throw it out.

DKoKoMan 06-20-2018 11:46 PM

I second in just tossing it out!!? :idea:

Razor Ramon 06-21-2018 05:34 PM

Thanks I would but it’s not new ... don’t think it’s causimg harm to any thing else .
I grew this blue mill from like 3 polyps .
“ Wet pet “it be like throwing my dog out just because he lost a leg .
I’m going to call it my blue mills “Nugget “ or “The Nugget “

Might try surgery.
Looks like what causes the bounce in my redactis mushrooms.
More input from long time reefers would be nice .😎
Thanks
I’ll up date pictures of whats to come.
