"Low cost corals" is about as oxymoron-ish as you can get.
A local reef club "frag swap" might be your best bet if cost is the main
issue.

That said I have had excellent luck with Reefer Madness, Reef Science,
C-Quarium, Dr. Mac, and Premium Aquatics.
Check out the "Vendor Forum" at ReefCentral.com where many people post their
experiences (both good and bad) with almost any vendor you can think of.

Then I unequivocally suggest Reefer Madness.
Every time I place an order hoping the husband won't notice new corals, I
receive a boatload of pieces so huge I may as well put flashing red lights
in there. I got an encrusting Monti so big that I was able to make 9 quite
large frags out of it.
I'm afraid to buy a "large" sized anything for fear a truck with a fork lift
will show up.
