Supposedly very nice stuff, all aquacultured, so reasonably guilt-free.

Huge stuff too. I've seen (on Discovery Channel when they were profiled a while ago) what they call "frags" what I would call "a football sized mother colony."

Pricey, but probably well worth it. I don't have any myself. Anytime some outfit brings stuff in, half of it is presold, sight unseen, and the rest pretty much flies out the door within a day or two.

So somebody is sure liking the stuff .......

Does anyone know if AJ's setup ever really took off, or was it all a dream?

Aquarium Illusions here in Edmonton used to bring in Wlt Smith stuff. I'm not sure if they still do! I remember the colors of the corals being very nice and the price being pretty high but I don't remember the size being very large.

Just visited Walt's new setup in LA this past weekend. I have one word...AMAZING. Any picture does not do any of the product justice. As for sizing...he doesn't now the meaning of small. Can't wait to see some start showing up soon.
