Hello,

I am looking for a nice acan lord 3-4" or frag. I would like to purchase it locally. Any ideas???

Many thanks,
Witold

3-4" - wow, better be prepared to spend alot of money - typically Lords are sold per head/polyp - depending on the size head, that size frag will be anywhere from $250 - thousands - some acans go for cheap ($8 per head) and 3-4" would likely be around 25 heads -

i would say that the common red and green striped pieces that are 3-4 inches should definetley not cost 250 dollars.
go on ebay hey have very nice sized acan lord pieces everyweek, buy a seller called "instareef" very nice pieces but they cost like 150 bucks.

a red stripped or green stripped should not cost more than 200 dollars if its 3 inches....
to some it all up,,, these are common corals, and contrary to popular belief they are very abundent in indo and non indo water, its just a mater of which government lets them out.

dont get caught up in the rare by nature garbage.

FYI

my piece looks a lot larger then the one in that picture.
If you want I can get an exact measurement and head count later today.

Sean I know this is a stupid q but do you get to manhattan at all?

 

[Sean]
