BigR Space Chaos palys

CCauthers · Jul 26, 2020

Just curious, but I know a little while ago the BigR space chaos were like 200-300 pp, what are they going for not? My LFS has some and I'm curious as to what the going rate is now.

I got mine from a fellow reefer for 50$ so retail might be a bit more around the 80$+ none of the retail stores in Orlando or Miami that I go to have them so I wouldn’t know exactly

As I understand there's the regular space chaos and then then BigR version which is more red. Maybe I'm mistaken in this and BigR is the originator of the space chaos. At any rate I have the regular one and this red morph supposedly from Bigger (RIP). Anyone else able to offer clarity and pricing on the difference between the two- if there is any?

I think you’re right I only have the Big R version I’m pretty sure, online the prices vary greatly so I’ve seen 80$ and for some reason zoanthids.com has them for 10k so I’m not too sure lol I had gotten some space chaos from you As well I believe that I think I misplaced so I’m not sure where they are haha

So, not to get off topic but I value the regular space chaos around $15-20pp which is about what I'm seeing. They grow fast and are pretty hardy. The ones I got as BigR space chaos are def more slow growing and I don't have any idea on valuation. Attaching pics of both, they're in the same system inches apart from each other. Both grown from single polyp frags, BigR first, 'regular' space chaos second.

Both the non-BigR Space Chaos and the BigR Space Chaos are the same strain. Most of the time it's sold just as Space Chaos because people forget it's from Mike Biggar (who unfortunately passed away recently). As for price, I'd hunt around for $30-$50 for a frag. You can get lucky if you wait around!

@littlebigreef I don't think the BigR Space Chaos you have are Space Chaos, but they're very cool nonetheless!

Thanks for the clarification. The two strains I have are in many respects similar with the only defining difference between the two being the center.

Yeah, I saw Bigger passed away a few days ago. Fu$k cancer.
