Rare and Unusual
 

On my quest to get rare and unusual corals, I see that there's an online store that sells to Canada. I've just sent them an Email to see what's involved on my side to import these corals.

What I'm interested here are Ricordia's that I've never seen locally. If I decide to order, I'll let you know so we may be able to pool our orders.

Example of Ricordia that they are selling on their website. These are cherry-picked. What you see is what you get.

I have the brown ricordia with green centres (third photo) that I picked up locally in our 42 gal. They're doing well under 175w 6500k halide in the lower part of our reef on one of the sides near a window.

Good luck importing them. I've heard that you'll be jumping through hoops of paperwork to get them here. Wouldn't J&L have something like the ones in the photos? They seem to have almost everything else. You're so close you could just drop by their store .... Geez, now I'm envious!

I wouldn't mind kicking in some cash to get some of these corals
