Not sure if it even pays to post here, but I am looking for some cheaper zoa's and rics......Thing is, my LFS has them priced at $10/head for rics and $10/5-6 polyp zoa's.
So with shipping, I am looking at paying less than $9 for each piece....possible???
My zip is 80537
I am looking for anything colorful....watermelon's, red's, stuff like that. NOTHING brown and no paly's!
LMK what you have and please post pictures!

i dont think that this is possible with shipping ...... there color that you are inquiring about red,orange, ect the ultra zoos are not cheap and shipping is pretty expensive....if your lfs has them for $10 for reds... and you cann see them in person why not get them there ? if you can get rics not just green but orange/blue/pink ect for $10 why not get them at the lfs to.... not trying to be mean or a wise ass but just doesnt make sense... take the risk of shipping them to save only 1 dollar is odd in its self... but like i said ultra zoos cost money and are deffinately not going to be available at the prices you expect to pay......further more if you lfs has them at that price for the rics let me know. i would love to get some ultra rics for that price.......

They don't have ultra rics, but they do have quite the variety....
The reason I don't buy any corals from them, is that they get the same rics and zoa's in every order......so I already have what they have!

but zoanthids are very pricey and that is reason the lfs probably doesnt have the ultras... because they are pricey and not many people are willing to pay what they cost .... well just keep in mind that the brighter the coral the more expensive it will be... so keep an open mind on price and even if they are alittle more at least know you are getting some awesome colors that no one around you has ..... and techincally they should pay for them selfs in time as they spread you can frag them and make at least some of your money back... under the right conitions zoas grow at a pretty rapid rate... just my 2 cents

I appreciate that, and have no problem spending the extra cash for "rarer" zoa's/ric's....
I did pick up a 10 head of Bam Bam's for $10 though :D
