I feel like I post too much about corals at Petco in Union Square, but hey, it's close to work and they get decent corals in sometimes.

Anyways, they have a really light blue/gray chalice for sale for $60. It's probably 4-5 inches in diameter.

They also have a brownish acan with around 30 heads for $75.

I don't really follow these corals like some people on this forum so I can't ID them. I do know that they have lighting that doesn't do the corals justice so it is potential that they are nicer peices after being under good lights for a while.

Just throwing this out there for any of you guys who are interested. I'd be curious if they have potential as these are cheap prices for these corals.

flatworms and aptasia are no big deal and should not influence your decision on purchasing a piece of coral.
dip all corals before adding them to your tank, no matter how clean the previous tanks look.
aptasia can be killed very easily, with kalkwasser paste, vinegar, bioling water...

also, there aren't very many brown acans. that acan will eventually color up to something else.

Did you buy a fiddler crab for your reef tank can they go in a reef tank?
