I have the following for sale:

1) Tyree Limited Edition Meteor Shower Cyphastrea:
$35-$50 depending on size of frag

Here is how Steve Tyree from Reef Farmers describes this coral:

"This exotically colored Cyphastrea ocellina species of stony coral was originally discovered by Mingwei and Joleen from Atlantis Aquarium http://www.atlantisaquarium.net. The base of this Cyphastrea coral is a brilliant dark green while the corals polyps are deep crimson red colored. What makes this coloration even more interesting is that the polyp mouths have developed a bright pink coloration. This makes for a visually stunning reef building stony coral. Cyphastrea ocellina primarily grows in a massive form but it does have the ability to encrust over rock very quickly. Atlantis Aquarium acquired the coral in the Fall of 2004. It was exported from Indonesia. The coral can adapt to strong light but we recommend starting with moderate light. Reeffarmers has been maintaining our seed section that we acquired from Atlantis Aquarium under weak to moderate light and it has been growing fairly good. Reeffarmers.com is maintaining a farmed section of this coral in one of our 125 gallon naturally filtered Tri-Zonal Reef Aquariums. In the Reeffarmers.com captive reef the coral is currently recieving weak to moderate light from a 400 watt 20,000 K Radium Metal Halide. Limited Edition Reservation price is currently $80 per small sized fragment.


2) ORA Blue Green Tort
$20 for 1" frag
Beautiful ORA coral that looks great and quite different depending upon the lighting.

3) ORA German Green with Blue Polyps
$25-$35 Depending on size of frag

4) Tyree LE Rainbow Montipora
$50 for approx. 1/2" x 1/2". These still need to be cut.

Here is Tyree's take "As our experience with captive grown stonies has continued to grow, we have been discovering some very interesting pigment morphs within these corals. This Rainbow Monti was discovered by Matt Juner of ReefReady.net Matt also owns and operates the Aquarium Service Business Amazing Aquariums. The Polyps of this Rainbow Monti are bright green within the corals center section. On the leading growth edge polyps turn orange/red. What makes this coloration change even more interesting is that polyps located in the area between the leading edge and center section have pigments with a spread coloration located spectrally between red and green. As you travel outward from the center section the pigments change from green to yellow to orange and then finally reddish orange. Thus the name Rainbow Monti. The faster the coral is growing and encrusting the wider the reddish orange region. In brighter lights there can also be more reddish orange polyps. The main coral coloration is blue and the surface of the coral has many small bumps or tuberculae. This is probably a blue Montipora danae species with a rainbow polyp color morph. Matt found this coral in early 2004 at a local wholesaler. If may have possibly been exported from Tonga. Initially the main body was more green colored but this eventually turned blue. Within one month of captivity the coral developed its rainbow polyp coloration. Steve Tyree is maintaining two farmed sections of this coral for reeffarmers.com in two of his 125 gallon naturally filtered Tri-Zonal Reef Aquariums. In Steve's captive reef the coral is positoned to recieve moderate light under a 400 watt 20,000 K Radium Metal Halide. Price is currently $80 per small sized fragment.

I'd like some Cyphastrea if possible.

I'd could possibly pick up tomorrow evening, or maybe Sunday evening. Otherwise would have to wait until Monday.
