    IMO, i think lineage is just silly, and i dont buy a coral because it came from one person to the next. If i see a posting where the person is talking about lineage i move onto the next just because i know the price is going to be higher than what it should be.

    heck i know the lineage of most corals. THE OCEAN. lol. Why should a coral be special because some guy picked it out of the ocean?

    I agree 1,000 % with EMUreef. Lineage has absolutely nothing to do with reefing, yet everything to do with making more of a profit. Thus misleading the buyer to thinking he or she is getting a line of corals traced back to Billy Bob's Reef Emporium in Flatrock and they are the soul owners of this polyp. Lineage, Limited Editions, New On The Scene and Only a Few Are Being Released, are all clues that you are about to empty your wallet because of hype. This is called Marketing 101.
