Rhizo corals, WAY to much

Would anyone actually buy these. From what i read they come out of the ocean around japan. Most are harvested illegally though. le-frog Becomeing more common now. Used to be in thousands range now u can get some small frags of them for couple hundred… anyone have one or have anything close to as exp…

Never heard of them. Of course a link or some pictures would help. If they’re that rare and if they’re pretty then YES I would buy them.

im pretty sure they are illegal, yes. But Ive seen some under different name go for bout 100-200$ They look like dendro’s but red.

ya… theres no many pics of them … buti would never buy it even if i loved it… lol maby we will see some expensive stuff at macna

theres this one on CVR. apparently they come in red, pink, green and white the most prevalent. it is like a dendro. Non Photosynthetic. so needs lower light, and regular feeding and smooth flow over it.

Many, but not all images on this page are of Rhizotrochus typus

I am not sure I have ever seen one in person. You can bet there will be tons of Dendros at MACNA, who knows what else will pop up. I’ll be there at 11am tomorrow looking over everything. Less then 12 hours from now. :smiley:

not sure on the legality of these, but they come through on our distributor lists quite often. just not a huge market for something like these guys, so of course we havent picked any up…

what would the sale price be like?

funny u asked, i just checked one of my lists that was emailed to me… they dont have any! figures. iirc, sale price was between 150 and 200. pm me if u r serious

ok so how many xenia frags lol

i was just at a pet store in new jersey yesterday and they had a pretty big one, about the size of a fist, for $400.
