This is just me personally, but I would not buy an Elegance through mail order. These corals can go down hill fast if they are in the wrong environment. The pic may look great but the coral may look much different by the time you get it. Most online retailers will not guaranty live delivery on an Elegance coral. I get all my corals from one of my LFS's where I can see them in person before I open my wallet, but thats just me though.
