My local fish store sells them for $45. I'm going to buy another one. I bought one for $50 a little while ago. I do hear of a lot of places charging around $60, so that's not overpriced.

hey, your asking a group of people that are self admitted to be EXITED to buy a wet rock for 5.00 per pound
Prices are set by what the market will bear. Prices would drop if no one would spend it.

Friend asked me once- if he put in the little blue top to his pepsi bottle in the reef I would be exited. I naturally treminded him I would beat him to an inch of deaths door if he put a his hand in one of my tanks. His argument is "well, its small, round, bright blue and you dont have one in there already. You should feel lucky I am not selling it to you for 50 bucks........"
Just something to think about.

You all suck. I wish I lived where you did. In Chicago, they are all at least 125, usually 150, and I have seen them for 175. Check the bay of e. I have bought two there, payed (aftershipping) 70 adn 75. I personally would not complain about 60 bux, and rather I would buy 2 or 3 at a time instead. They are worth every little red cent.
Enjoy.

$45 to $60 for neon purple or orange. If you get one, His tentacles need atleast 6 inches. Mine stings everything! He swelled my tongue coral into a beach ball and has killed a patch of organ pipe.

Hey grumpy gils. You are speaking of a tube anemone I believe, not a coco worm. Good price check though.
