Nemo's Reef Wiki

The following tables list information on coral, available from the nursery (with a few exceptions which were limited editions.) They are grouped according to the amount of time between harvest cycles, and can be sorted by any of the columns with up/down arrows. It is possible to sort by more than one criteria by clicking on the secondary column first, then holding <shift> while clicking on the primary column.

The two far right columns attempt to illustrate the minimum time and harvest cycles needed to recover the growth cost (in algae) of a single plant, assuming timely collection after every cycle. These "break-even" numbers do not take into account the initial cost in either SDs or pearls, as there is no accurate ratio between SDs/pearls and algae.
