Frick AZ FRAG President Nov 9, 2012 #2 Most think ORAs Pearlberry is a Acropora desalwii http://www.orafarm.com/products/hardcoral/acropora/pearlberry/ http://coral.aims.gov.au/speciesPages/species_metadata/0679/view# I believe the SSC is Acropora microclados. http://coral.aims.gov.au/speciesPages/species_metadata/0045/view# I have not seen a tequila sunrise (my hangovers last to the afternoon). And yes Ice Fire is a true echinata. http://coral.aims.gov.au/speciesPages/species_metadata/0026/view# Now all that said, the opposite does not apply. For example, all desalwii species are not Pearlberry, only the strains from ORA are.
