    Hi bros,

    Was roaming ard pasir ris fish farm yesterday, and noticed a very beautify Sun Polyp Coral. However was quoted $80 for it.

    Wanted to check if that pricing is "normal" ?

    Thanks.

    Generally, the prices here in the UK are a lot more than in singapore, at $80 is about £35, you can usually walk into a shop here and buy one for less than that.
    Currently keeping many wild betta species and other anabantoids.

    Size wise is about 10cm by 5cm ba. Maybe the owner has no intention to sell it then...

    Or maybe the owner sees you as a carrot head?

    Maybe the one you saw is Super Sun Coral, they look exactly the same as normal sun but with larger polyps. Normal Sun is about $15 to $20 a rock. Quite standard.
