Red Scolymia Hybrid! -Back on the Market!
Extremely Rare prized Scolymia type Coral. This coral has 8 plus mouths and was collected over two years ago in Pohnpei. Adding to its rarity is the fact that currently no corals are being shipped from Pohnpei for the aquarium trade. This is definitely a "one of a kind” coral. It has been a "Show Piece" in our 300 gallon reef tank located here at our warehouse.

I think the price is insane. But i dont like scoly's so maybe it's just that im being closed minded.

I know for the price I think I would rather just get a few of those rainbow Japanese brain corals.

I think for the price I would build another Tank instead. Rare but not that attractive.. We will see more of those on the market again soon. As far as a hybrid, I don't think so.

I want a bigger pic

I think it's the person that would buy it for that much.

ipiniowa · #8 11/03/2006, 09:00 PM

Sooooo...... Does that come with a guarantee on it?

mothra · #9 11/04/2006, 12:43 AM

Wow, I wonder what the deal is, just because it has multiple mouths? Not that's it's common, but there are species of scolymia that DO have multiple mouths and are not hybrids of any kind. I can think of at least one online vendor that I have seen them (more than one) sold at before.

Witht he tiny pic it reminds me of a package of ground beef.

Does it taste like filet ;p

I second the vote to build a new tank and\or import some of the japanese brains

Looks like a pile of loose stool.

I think that much money would be better justified paying college tuition for somebody else's kid.

hilarious peep's...

T5PO · #17 11/06/2006, 01:38 PM

I think it will remain the show piece.

All Delight · #18 11/06/2006, 01:49 PM

I didn't see it on the site. If its Jeff's Exotic that has it. I'd be really surprised if they actually did have it. I wouldn't trust them.

I bought a fish from their store. Asked them to hold it for me. I told them I'd pick it up in 2 weeks. I know thats a while but they agreed so I thought everything would be cool. Anyway I came back on the 14th to pick up my fish. And it was gone. Asked them where it was and they said they sold it. Why? Because they said they didn't know if I'd come back. What? I paid for it, you marked sold on the tank it was in, pickup date was on there. Then they wouldn't even give me my money back. Said I could have store credit. What a horrible experience.

BTW this was the one in the city of Orange.

$2K for a coral? That's a typo right?

That's just silly...

FastFish720 · #20 11/06/2006, 09:52 PM

I actually have a purple ring green center version of it, and it's amazing!

JamesJR · #21 11/07/2006, 12:44 AM

That coral maybe amazing, but for 2 grand I would rather diving to look at it rather than keep it in my tank.

marine134 · #22 11/07/2006, 04:12 AM

Is that coral already been sold like a 1 or 2 ago when they put it on their website with a sign said "SOLD".Anyway, i saw this coral in person like around 6 months ago and it just look like another lobo to me.The funny thing is that if the coral are so valuable and should they put it inside their show tank instead of a 12 gallon jbj nano tank .

Chaotic Reefer4u · #23 11/08/2006, 12:28 AM

very interesting...

MarineGirl411 · #24 11/14/2006, 03:09 AM

It looks like a turd. Do people really have money to blow on something like that? Sheesh! If so, what is your job? What do you do for a living? Do you charge it? I've got some cat turds over here for ya, I'll sell for 10 cents a plop. Come on! 2 grand? Why don't you feed the homeless or save some shelter animals?

Poisson Voyageur · #25 11/14/2006, 06:27 AM

Looks to me like a stool or an inflamated A. Hole!

Am I dirty minded or what? it's ugly...
