      Ultra RBTA and Nirvana zoas

      7/9 Update: Mother Ultra RBTA Sold. Sad to see her go but she's in a good home as a center piece in a studio near Aquatic Warehouse. Hope she does well and fill that tank with splits!
      My Chicago Sunbursts have taken over her spot and my clowns hosted their up-scaled homes immediately! =)

      6/25 Update: Price on the Mother Ultra RBTA reduced to $200. Will toss in a nirvana zoa frag free!
      It's good 8" across, see 6" white ruler on top for reference. Smaller splits sold out between $100-150.





      FCFS, Venmo/Paypal holds.

      -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6/18 Update: All nems sold except the original Mother Ultra Rainbow! $220! It's now almost 8" across. See below for splits she's produced.





      It's all one nem in this pic. Probably splitting soon.


      Also found a smaller ~3" split behind the rocks. Hasn't fully colored up but cool colors. It also have white specks. SOLD!


      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      4/28 update: Small and medium sold. Just the large $150 left. (I think the large is going to split soon. The last large mother nem just split yesterday!)
      Free Nirvana zoa frag (8-12 polyps) with purchase!

      Small sold.


      Medium on right sold. Large center/left. $150 available.


      Here's the mother on the rock with the split hiding down to the right barely visible.


      Still a few Nirvana zoas from 8-20 polyps. $25 per frag. Free with nem purchase!




      -------------------------------------------------------------

      Original post and older pics:

      I have a few splits of my rainbows healed and ready to go. These are a lot brighter than normal rbtas.
      I sold a batch to AquaSD last year only see them listed/sold for $350 each! Thought I took a screen shot but can't find it... BTW, nothing against AquaSD at all. Just really surprised how much prices have gone up! Guess it's like gold torches that used to sell $80 a head year or 18 months ago are now $300

      Smaller ones 3-4" in nem box but will expand to 4-5" with open space and get to 6-7" before splitting. $100





      Mother colonies rocks - Center one around 6-7" - $150.


      Pic with more whites on.


      Mother nem on the right in pic above for size reference. Ruler = 6'



      Chicagos not for sale at the moment. Want to grow them out and get a few more splits.

      Thanks Boyd! Pm replied.

      Also, few people asked about the yellow nem in the pic. They are Chicago Sunbursts and not for sale at the moment. I have a couple people on the wait list for new splits and I need more space for them to split, which is why I'm selling the rainbows.

      AquaSD buys from locals, gives the corals unique names, and resells at higher margins

      True, that’s because AquaSD is a business. Nobody is forced to sell to them, and almost every coral shop does the naming now anyway.

      I have nothing against AquaSD. Will saved me lot of time buying everything off me at once and paid my asking price. I didn't have to deal with the hassle of pick up/drop off/ flakes etc. so I was happy.

      Just shocked to see later that the nems were listed/sold for $350 when I sold them for $50. Of course I understand he can reach out to a much bigger market with shipping and all. So it's all good.

      Also, stopped in Aquatic Warehouse yesterday, they were out of plain rose btas. was told that they sell fast at $120! Guess the anemone market is going up considering demand and not many wild caught nem's are available.

      Nice meeting you Michael! if you do get a filter, i highly recommend the Orphek lenses. I tried gel filters from Amazon, the Polyp Labs and Orphek came out the winner.

      Feed it meaty food every few days and watch it grow/split. =) oh, give it plenty of room away from corals it might sting.
