Xenia coral worth nothing???
« on: March 10, 2013, 01:40:16 »
Hi everyone!
i have tons and tons of xenia coral everywhere in my 65 and 75 tank. i know this corals r not expensive, but i still wondered if i could frag and sell them??? or should i just throw them away??
ALSO, anyone has experience of trading corals to LFS like Gerbers? anyone knows how much store credit i can get if i trade in my xenia/toadstool/hammer/mushrooms.
 planning to buy a pair of black&white clown, want to trade in some corals to save some money.
thanks/!!

I had the same problem I did get to give some away. I pitched most of it. I finally rid my tank of it for that reason. Other members did say you could sell it at gerbers & maybe at other lfs in the area.

I trade xenia in at gerbers all the time.  They will give a very fair price for it.  My dads 72 gallon is over run with xenia, it's like the plague.   He cuts a lot and just throws it out, I go over and frag it and trade it at gerbers or swap it.

sorry, just saw ur post.  i traded in some corals already, but i still got some xenia, gsp, toadstool frags ready to go.
im trying to buy a pair of snowflake clowns, dont wanna buy super small ones online.
gerber's has some large sizes pairs for $250 or something. i feel like once i trade in some more corals, i can just add a little cash for them.
do u really thing i should not get fish from them??? :'(

Oh! They r so cute.!
 I saw those clowns, but I feel like they should be just couple month old.
My ocellaris pair and black&white pair are started laying eggs, I'm thinking of raise the babies.
But i feel like I may not be able to earn my money back since those clowns r so cheap.
That's why I'm looking to buy a large pair or even a breeding pair of snowflake. ::)
