That picture looks so saturated IMO. Also wild dual and tri colour milleporas are notorious for changing colour and reverting to a single colour. JUST MO/ME

Its a crazy picture but get me an encrusted WYSIWYG frags with some other stuff in the picture to judge the white balance and accuracy. Even better yet show me that coral that was grown in someones tank. Wont happen.

Very true, but we can dream can't we? I saw a few other pics elsewhere but can't find them at the moment. That pic is actually not too far off (though photography is very selective and only shows the best). No idea what it's like long term though. And you're right, it probably wouldn't stay like that.

It'd be nice to find something of that epic-ness in Canada. Out west, for the most part, we have fairly run of the mill SPS (aka mostly crap), nothing spectacular. OC does carry some nice stuff but its 2 hours total driving for me (if no traffic) and I often don't have any luck there. Closest I can get decent SPS is Coral Master in Alberta.

I almost need to start importing just so I can find cool stuff...

IME tri-colors turn into bi-colors! LOL... and yes I am dosing all kinds of supliments!

Also IME it is very hard to ge a true to life pic of coral under actinic lighting without photoshop and using your own subjective perspective to adjust the whie balance and saturation. Still having said that, I would still dish out some $$$ to get some corals from the states.

Cherry Corals had a booth at last year's MACNA...let's just say it's a good thing only Zoas can cross the border or I would have come back broke! They have a lot of super sweet corals.
