Sounds like a lot of money, though it's a pretty big piece. They do go for more than regular Toadstool, I think there is a Tyree one too. Do a search on ebay, as people sell them there from time to time.

It's worth whatever you're willing to pay for it and not a dime more. It's hard to place value on a coral... is an expensive car worth it?

 

[jackson6745]

Lots of guys have it locally including me You can find it cheaper. Not fragging mine though

 

[DRENALYN9]

i have two frags already 2" X 2"

So why give a **** about that thread then?

People are always charging crazy money on there because common corals to us may be rare for someone in Iowa

i got this one here next to my tonga yellow, think i paid 40 dollars for it. they grow fast, mine grew twice the size in a year.

I have one it's about 8" round now. Was purchased as a tyree and fraged by a fellow club (lira) member. I paid $25 for a 1 inch frag. and it grew super fast. I don't know the difference between a tyree or your green toadstool though. :wink1:
FWIW Calfo did a fraging presentation at the last NERACII he showed a easy way of fraging toadstools with getting the max frags and still keeeping the orginal shape of the parent toolstool.

you take a xacto knife and stick it about 1/2 inch from the outer edge then cut around the entire toolstool making a seprate ring.
then you just slice up the ring in sections and mount them . you are then left with the parent having the same nice round shape and 20 fags to grow out or sell them as is.
do the math :wink1:

If you go to Garf.org website they show you how to frag toadstools. They have pictures and a movie showing you how to do it.

ORA also has those and you can get them retail for about $40 most places. They come in as a small 1.5"ish frag. Fragging leathers is so easy I don't know why they have demonstrations for it anymore.

Not all of us know everything.
