    Hi banthonyb71

    some people might assume based on your post above that your the seller of these items

    from previous threads, posts of yours, I dont believe thats the case
    and the fact there is no link there, always indicates to me its a genuine enquiry
    and your providing the full list as it was and asking from that list what would be good 1st corals?

    any from these 2 lists - would be ideal IMO from the lists above
    also hermit crabs, and snails would be OK at this stage

    POLYPS, ZOA $1 ON UP

    RICORDIA PER MOUTH

    ahhhh. I understand now. sorry about that. I guess nowing what was hardy wasnt enough for me. I wanted to know what was a good deal too. Which is why I left the pricing. probably should left that out. thanks for the tips.

    welcome bathonyb71

    you may have noticed we do on occasions get visits from spammers
    normally its on their 1st post and sometimes its not even aquatic related ( electrical goods, mobile phones etc) and these are always in the form of a list with prices
    consequently people who see these lists suspect the worst

    the best way to assess value is to check around - you will quickly get a feel for current market prices and then will know if the prices above represent good value

    Sorry, thought you were a spammer. Those hole saw bits are very hardy though ;)

    The hammer, and the keya tree would be good choices. My first coral was a hammer, and it's doing great. LPS'es like a little dirty water so their real hardy, and the keya tree will let you know by glance if you need to check your tank. I have a coral bueaty in my tank, w/ acans, and he is a well behaved fish, but I hear they are 50/50 when it comes to picking at corals.
