Yea for sure. Almost all my frags came from member of our local reef club. Id never be able to afford buying from LFS lol.
I feel you there. I'm always hunting for deals. I've actually made about 2-3x as much as I spent on corals by fragging and selling/trading. Heading out for a trade tomorrow-2 different people but all together 17 frags for 2 koralia 750s, euro reef rs-100 skimmer, and a 75 gallon tank w/ stand. I think I'm getting one heck of a deal since if sold the pieces they have chose comes to a total of $135.
