What's up with all this Le crap?

[flricordia]

Le Pink Passions. Le peach, Le orange, Le sunset, Le tropical., LE, Le, le...
I am starting to see this all over. What the **** does it mean and why are these vendors all starting to put this onto the common names of the corals they are selling?
Is it supposed to make them more desirable. It makes me want to spit and puke. Le crappola.
I don't even know what the ---- this is supposed to mean.
Thanks SWF for bleeping out my language. Just pisses me off.

Same reason there are a million names for zoanthids. To make more money when selling them.

By the way Flric I have some new zoas to sell you....they look alot like palythoa grandis but, and this is a BIG but, they are a LE Palythoa Grandis....$80 a polyp let me know!

Would you be willing to trade for a large LE Angler turd?

 

[reefereric]

Has the turd been fossilized yet? I hear those are worth a pretty penny. But ONLY from anglers. Damsel goodies are worthless. And CFR is just full of it. We all know you can't have a LE of a LE... It just doesn't mathematically work out. Like being your own dad.
Work is slow... BAH!

 

[aquaknight]

At least LE is better then LTD. Think about it. How wrong could this sentence be mistaken for?
"Honey, just got back from the fish stores, got some crabs and a few LTD's"

 

[petjunkie]

I just love people willing to pay $200 for a 1/4 frag or one eye of some LE chalice or acan. Me, I'll take my money and buy a sweet no name colony of something else that I can see without a magnifying glass. Also I get a good laugh out of everybody's "mother colonies", most of them are still on a frag plug themselves. I don't consider 1 full inch of chalice to be a colony. I have a couple supposed to be LE but I don't call them that or plan on chopping them up unless they manage to outgrow my tank.
