Haven't seen in around SA. GC Reef in Corpus had one. If you can't find them, ask Louis at Elegant Reef. He's willing to order just about anything you want.

Sad to say I was the one who took that nice piece and it was beautiful when fully bloomed..... But it didn't make it too long, maybe a few months and I never knew why..... A threw it in my fuge cause I felt bad taking it out, it was really nice.... And I noticed a couple of aptasia coming out of it...... Don't know if that was the cause but it was one of the only 3 corals I have ever had go south on me.....

Hey you are in luck! I happen to have a small colony of this! I can frag you off a piece. It was not doing very good when I got it and the polyps white color kinda faded to an off white color but they are coming back and they are so full and happy. It has doubled in size since i got it about 1 1/2 months ago. You can have it for free! i got it from Polly's. Someone came in and traded out for some corals or something.

They seem to like medium flow and I have mine in the sand bed.

HEY ROB I know that picture! It's one of my favs! I have that pic on my website where people can buy prints.
