Yes I did. I don't know if I was the pre-pay or not but they had two when I was there. I mean I didn't leave a deposit or pay before I picked it up.
I was there on Monday when they were placing the ora order, dumb luck I guess.

You got lucky then. I didn't realize they had 2 in the store. I thought they only got 1. Oh well, I'm hoping to get one next week.

My LFS said they ordered some. I asked to be one of the first in line.

That sure looks like the Christmas mirabilis. I hope the red planet holds the green body better than my ATL CM did. That is a stunning looking coral. The frags look better than the colony IMO.

Im still skeptical about it holding such a strong green base. I dont know if any of you guys have seen pics of the Pearlberry mother colony, but most of the frag pics are waaaay brighter and better looking, but the mother still has nice blue tips with more of a greenish base than you usually see, yet lacks the fading effect from purple to blue to light blue. The pic released for this guy shows just a bit of green visible at the base of the mother colony, but I suspect it wont be throughtout the colony as it is in the frag. I think it will look similar to Leishman coral he posted above, with a bit more green between coralites and at the base. Either way Im very happy with my most recent ORA purchase

Stun reefer like this?

I had it for 3 months now, it came in looking like that. It's in our ZEOvit.

Just got it today! First picture is it when I first put it in the tank. The second pic is after 1 hour.

Leishman, is yours (assuming the same sp.), a fast, moderate or slow growing acro?

j4, if you remember to, count me in at fragging time!

Leishman's grows very fast. Here is a shot of my colony.

 

[marc price]

are you implying yours is from the same colony as Leishmans?

I got mine directly from Leishman.

 

[marc price]

than did you also get the ora to be able to say that it's not even close to yours? i ask because when i look at the pics of ros_sco's compared to HiddenClown's i might think that other than color they're not the same. the latter exhibiting much longer corallites overall.

 

[Chrisrush]

He put a little smiley face after his statement, which one might interpret as being sarcastic.

 

[Leishman]

143gadgets is a close friend, here he is trying to steal my Purple Monster colony.......

Sorry for the misinterpretation.

It was a joke.
