Beginner corals

[diabolical_clownfish]

Hi all - I'm a beginner with a 35 gallon tank located in the Detroit metro. I'm looking to buy some relatively hardy / inexpensive corals or anything that people would be willing to give away. If possible, please reply to the post with pictures / list / prices. Prefer local pickup.

Thanks!

I would personally check out if there are any Facebook groups for Michigan Reefers and reach out to them there.

Thanks. I believe Facebook no longer allows the sale or advertise of live animals and the messages on my local group got pretty cryptic because of this.

anything specific that you're looking for?

I have one frogspawn and one candy cane so far. I'd like to stay with LPS, and I have received suggestions of Duncan, Euphyllia, Acan, and Blasto as the easy / hardy ones.

Hey there, mushrooms are a good way to start as they're tons of colors and usually pretty hardy. I've got a good bit that are going for 25$ each. Shipping is 30$ unless the order is over 250 which would get free shipping. If you're interested I can post a few photos up? I posted one for an example.

Thanks - I really like it (is this the ricordea mushroom?). I would like one but the shipping is too much. Are you located in the Detroit areas? I would definitely go for it if local pick up is an option.

I am not, I'm in the carolinas. wish I could do a tad better on the shipping but that's the deal fedex/ups gives me
