Friend going to Sydney, Scoly Opportunity?

[Lt Nos]

I have discounted shipping with FedEx and I figure I can get a reduced rate given I'm at the source, but I havnt found any sources? Any help?

you need CITES permits to export corals to the US and I don't think any of the collectors/stations are anywhere near Sydney..

Why not just buy with in the states?

Just figured I could get a more affordable outlet for grabbing a very expensive coral.

I thought the same thing when I found many foriegn places to get coral colonies really cheap,but you have to have CITES like said above,and it ends up pretty pricey about the same you would pay to buy right here in the u.s.

CITES is just overly priced.But with shipping fee's,CITES,box fee's,etc.

Honestly,scolys are not that high priced in the end,its going to be about the same to get one in Aussie as it would be here IMO.

and also you will need to spend about $7,000 to $10,000 to buy
