Hi George

Yes! Elegance corals removed from any reef in large quantities will and does have a detramental effect on its future populations. Trying to manage collectors in foreign countries that have no environmental regulations or enforment agencies is a big problem. I'm still wondering why after 12 years of repeatedly telling collectors that Gonipora is not a sutable specimens for reef tanks because they just eventually die off, that they are still being shipped. and now we see them coming in a variety of dyed speciemens which is absalutely idiotic.

Cheers
