Aquacultured corals other than SPS

[blueheaven]

Guys, was wondering why we do not see aquacultured corals other than zoos and SPS?

I mean, why is no one selling aquacultured acanthastrea, rhodactis or blastomussa?

Pls share your views

For acans and blastos, because their growth rate is way toolow... If anyone wants to make business from aquaculturing blasto and acans, I think his business can fold liao....

In america, i think theres a few online dealer that sell acans frag but i dun think is aquacultred..

as for rhodactis, lfs in singapore are bringing in aquacultured rhodactis aleady just that you din notice

But isn't it better to get aquacultured corals?

Not quite sure about rhodactis but so far the only aquacultured corals I've seen are the SPS

Is there a demand in Singapore in the first place?

of course its better...... but aquacultured corals are way too small.. Ok small aquacultured sps can grow quickly in a short period of time but aquacultured lps will take a freaking long time.....

Anyway there is also aquacultured lobo from fiji shipment(wa** sm***)... if you like aquacultured suff go get them and you understand what i mean

Yeah there is aquacultured rhodactis in one of our lfs but not popular, think too ex...
