Probably why it is fairly pricey. Found a piece in the USA awhile back, but did not want to spend the 200.00 for a 1" frag at the time.

Typically, this is true. apparently the RD was cultured and not directly from the ocean. They said it could be imported, but we all know there is all sorts of hassles convincing customs etc...

Good luck with that. Think they were just trying to sell it once they have your money they don't care. As far as I know all acro needs proper paper work.

Cities is required for all stony coral from what I remember.
Also live rock is a no/no
I believe Zoas/fish are OK to bring over.

i have brought some across before. Yes, you need all the proper paperwork showing customs it is allowed across etc. The issue is proving that what you are bringing across is what you say it is and what is allowed. They want it easy for them to understand or else it is too easy for them to just say no. They can not possibly know everything about what is allowed etc... Like anything in life, if you have all your ducks in a row, it usually makes it easier for all involved.

You are taking a huge risk. At any point they could arrest you and charge you with the importation of a cities restricted animal.

The only ducks you should line up is the proper paperwork (i.e. a re-export cities permit), otherwise you are taking a huge risk

This is what I thought driving sps across border is crazy even if you have done it before and were successful doesn't mean it was right.
