I visited several US forum reefing sites and if you can manage to make it through the whining and name calling crap what it boils down to is this copied from another forum
Quote:
You can continue to own any coral on the list
You can continue to transport them across state lines but not internationally and not for commercial purposes
You can give and receive any coral on the list but must be done for free and no money or services can be exchanged (ie. trade frags with someone else or friends but must be done with no monetary value or services exchanges)
Exception from certain rules/regulations if you already own any of the above coral
Any coral not farmed from native environment is excluded(ie. if it is grown in your tank and parcelled out)
The new law affects sellers and collectors of coral adversely (stores, wholesalers, coral farmers in US territorial waters)
