Flooded market of maricultured SPS

[duke62]

Has anyone else noticed that the past 2 weeks alot of LFS had the same maricultured acros as the next lfs. I went to about 5 or 6 stores the past 2 weeks and they were exactly the same in each. Guessing a wholesaler had a special running.

Im not talking the amount of mariculured SPS Im talking they have the EXACT same corals.

Duke I think you're seeing the less sought after acros in these tanks. The nicer stuff gets snatched up quick. I have a couple maricultured colonies that look nicer than the LE versions of them. My plana and suharsonoi to be exact. I also have some mariculture colony that look identical to a cali tort, only with blue polyps.

+1 all the good stuff gets grabbed up minutes as its put out.
