new rare corals at shop

hey guys, check out these 2 new corals we have at the shop. they are both very rare and very beautiful

the red 1 is called echinophora lamellosa and it went for 400. the green 1 is called echinophyllia and it went for 300. they are both quite stunning in person. the red 1 came from the red sea and the green 1 came from japan.

I simply can't imagine anyone paying prices like that for corals. I mean at a local shop a few weeks ago there was an Acropora sp. that was the size of a basketball and was beautiful which went for only 180.

I just bought a green echinophyllia for US$20 here in Thailand last week... Mind you it's not a legitimate trade here at all...

Sadly the government does nothing to set up a regulated trade here as many of the crooks selling illegally pilfered coral are politicians and prominent people. Also the wildlife department is notoriously corrupt.
