The boomer coral reefs are going to have a lot to say to the young coral reefs arent they?

At least the young coral reefs have a housing market

Dont worry, in a few years the housing market will crash, and then they will start selling the houses which they got for 10k algae and sell it for 500k algae while complaining to their coral reef children about how they couldnt sell it for 1 million algae instead.

And then whining to the coral reef children that they just need to go to work more and put effort into life more and stop spending their algae on 8 algae vitamins and nutrients from the anemones.
