Rhyzo Typus ... Pricing???

Sea MunnKey · Mar 20, 2008

I'm just curious to know just how many of you folks collects these much sought after Rhyzo Typus for your personal collection?
How much would you pay for this specific Coral ... in your frank opinion (ignoring the fact that it's being Sold at a much, much higher price ... Online!!)
Would you rather go for a Aussie Acan/Micromussa colony over these Rhyzo Typus?
Any opinions or criticisms are most Welcome!!

(A private collection from my buddy's Tank ... :marv )

Just my opinion, but I would much rather have an acan or micro colony. Need I say why?

Them R. Typus corals are more or less than 2 - 2.5 inches across in width .... unfortunately they can't be fragged unlike Acans/Micro and the colors are somewhat in the range of White, Yellow, Pink, Green and Bi-colors are kinda Hard to Find as far as I know.

i prefer a micro colony over R. typus
but id rather have a dendro over a micro frag

It's abundance in Asia and doesn't cost an arm and a leg for this Coral specimen ....

I also like micros & acans but if I could get my hands on another Rhizo I would in a heart beat.

I did not pay near that much. I got them from a person I buy alot of stuff thru. So I do not know what they would be thru a retail store.

no offense to anyone that likes them, but I dont really care for them. They remind me of something in my tank that needs a dosing of joes juice. Ill take a micro or lord colony any day over them.

I absolutely LOVE them

I wish that I could afford an entire collection LOL

Stacie I dont believe that I have EVER seen one as pretty as yours on the Left... Just WOW! You really have some great stuff!
