looking for a good online source for soft corals, leathers.
Not so much zaos or shrooms since everyone has them now. Thanks

If you want run-of-the-mill softies, LiveAquaria has a bunch in stock often and a good variety of species and colors. Higher end stuff such as Japanese Long Tentacle Toadstools will usually pop up on eBay auctions and coral source auctions on Facebook, so look around for a good auction group on there and see what they have to offer :)
 
-Pacific East Aquaculture ;under premium frags- polyps when I’ve found them.
-Unique will have some periodically
-LIveaquaria as well.
 
Thank you for the sources. Should I assume $30-60 is the normal cost online? What the normal LFS $. Let’s just say cabbage leather, snake/worm polyp, waving hand/clove? Thanks

$30 to $60 for regular stuff is normal.
And you can find some beautiful stuff in that range if you shop around.
Photosynthetic red or blue plating sponges, canary yellow sponges. Beautiful solid colored discomma's, ORA neon green sinularia, etc.


For the stuff with a lot of 'pop', the sky is the limit.

Expect $100 to $300 for normal high dollar stuff.
Eclectus, Jawbreakers, bounce mushrooms, etc.

With the current most extraordinary mushroom being priced at $1,000.
Or was it $10,000?
Google reef builders and mushrooms.
Gotta admit, it sure caught my eye.

Coming from FW where 100 for a cichlid or pleco was a fair bit. Now a lfs visit could cost me $150 a visit.part of that due to the wife “pretty” factor. “Just go ahead and get it” she is partially addicted.
