I thought fragging was good for our hobby as it insures that coral will still be around in the event one person has a catastrophe, and as you seem to be aware can be quite profitable
Also, I just scored my sweetest B. Wellsi to date. Looks to be bright red inside with a blue ring.

Well its not that, he did frag it and is selling it =). But I think when there is a big really nice piece, its a shame to break it up. A lot of ppl I think agree with me. I do understand what you are saying, and I spread a lot of my corals around. A show piece like that however I think should be just left alone cause they are very rare in that size. A very nice find.

I shore do love them knowledgeable LFS staff, especially when they say stuff like "that there damselfish (orchid dottyback) is five dollars" or "that coral is dead, you can have it"
