I'm currently in indonesia for a short and luckly i was able to visit the sumenep LFS.

I'm particularly looking for Donut / Acans / Blasto / Trachyphellia

is this correct brightly colored donuts are selliing for 1M??
Trachyphellia 200k?

Please advise on the price range that i should look for when i purchase LPS corals.

thanks first time i asked they were selling it for 1.2M and after they sold it for 500k (which seems to be reasonable given the colors that i saw)

they are selling the trachy for 200k though

Depends from the source of that corals, each source of the corals is not have the same price.
In Indonesia coral source are commonly known from Bima or Makassar...but rare coral source such as Komodo's Island is have two or third time more expensive than the commonly known source such from Bima or Makassar..
And one option beside that is the colors is judging the price,more colors or rare/unique pattern means more price
