Oh its easy enough. Most people just arent willing to wait several years to get a decent amount of corals before they start selling. Many people move homes every couple of years. Unless you just got a house and plan on being there for the next ten years, most people do not have a stable enough living situation to attempt serious coral farming.

Of course you could always rent a seperate location and farm them there, but that is not a simple alternative and has a huge up front cost to establish.

Many reefkeepers are going to have excess amounts of coral growing in their display tanks after a years worth of time anyways. If you just want a 'frag display tank' thats fine, but it is still a display tank. Be happy with that and slowly grow out your stock.

And dont quit your day job.
