What is PROP?
In 2004 the Propagators Reef Organization Project was founded. A group of hobbyists banned together, in the name of conservation, to promote captive propagation of corals for the aquarium hobby. PROP's primary mission is to seek out and purchase captive grown coral fragments that have proven to be healthy, colorful and have an excellent survival rate. The secondary mission is to seek out other rare corals with potential. All PROP corals are then grown out and made available through auction to our reefing community.
What are PROP Auctions?
PROP Auctions are held approximately 6 times a year. PROP Frags are sold to the winning bidder with 100% of the sale going to purchase additional PROP Corals. Hobbyists are encouraged to propagate their own corals and auction them at the event with a small sellers fee of 10% to be donated to PROP. Fees are reinvested for coral purchases or donated to FRAG for special events. At no time do the PROP farmers receive money from the sale of PROP corals. ALL expenses incurred by the farmers as a result of caring for the PROP corals are absorbed by each farmer.
