Captive Grown SPS Colonies for Sale/Trade


I'm in the process of breaking down my old tank and have some good size colonies that I've grown out from (captive propagated) frags. All of these grew well under PC lighting and are very hardy.

I'm mainly interested in selling these but will consider equivalent trades (not interested in soft corals - except zoanthids or ricordia yuma). Also want to part with these locally but will ship if the offer is right. I can frag any one of these for $15/frag. Please PM me if interested.

First one is a Blue Acropora Millipora which has a table growth form. Colony size is ~5".

This is a piece of Marshall Live Rock (probably ~5 lbs??) with three corals on it. One 3"-4" purple tip acropora colony, 4" bronze Porities, and the remains of a purple tri-color acropora colony that I removed.

Here's a picture of the purple tri-color acropora that I removed from the above rock. This isn't for sale, just to show what the remains of the coral can grow into.

Dennis,
Yep, they're green.

Wanareef,
Sorry, I only have time to check the forums once or twice a week. I'll go read the PM's now...

Hi Chris,

Yes, I want the rock and I agree to your price, it is very fair. I sent you a PM but your mailbox is full. I am in Portland every week normally Thursdays but this coming week I will be there on Tuesday also. Lets set up a place to exchange

Update:

LR is sold but I have two small frags of the purple tip colony from it for $15/ea. I also have frag's of the orange plating montipora above for $15. Other colonies still available and have not been fragged yet.

I still have the A. Millipora colonies and the large purple plating montipora (less a couple of frags on all). Each colony is still >5" in size and could generate 10-20 frags if completely fragged out. I'm willing to trade/sell frag's of all of these or the entire colonies.

PM me if you have any interest - I would trade for SPS, zoanthids, other polyps, ricordia, rhodactis mushrooms, uncommon/colorful LPS (particularly blastomussa wellsi), a colorful serpent starfish, electric blue hermits, anenomes, etc... Also looking for a indo-pacific strawberry conch...

Also have a good size piece of the purple tip acro (see, above 4th picture) which grew onto another rock available.

I will also be fragging out the tri-color acro (5th picture).

Still have some of the orange montipora capricornus too (see 3rd picture).

I picked up eleven frags a few days ago and have to say they're doing great. Awesome frags and great prices, I would recommend him to anyone.

Still trying to clear out these corals (plus a few others in my tank that I've decided to git rid off to make space). I can generate some pretty big frags from some of these.

PM me if interested.
