We have guy coming to MACNA who can not only keep gonioporas alive, but he can slice them up to make hybrids. Oh, did I mention that he will be demonstrating this technique at the fragging demo at MACNA?

Got a pic of the elegans?

I'd love to see that but there is no way I can make it to MACNA unfortunately. I have one that I've had since I set up my tank back around July. I got it from a guy that lived by me and was moving and gave me that and several other corals/fish. He told me that he had it for about eight months at that point which would put it around Nov 04 (take that for what it's worth). If this piece does survive longer (I'd say another year) I'd sure like to know the method to see if it is possible to propogate these in our tanks if we could get a good healthy species.

Here is a not so decent picture of this one. BTW, this was in the tank when I had my temperature problem a while back where my tank went down to around 56~58 degrees overnight. Long thread a while back.

well hmmmm the elegance looked big and nice the first two days and then swollen oral disk and stubby deflated tentecles for a couple of days and now is starting to look nice again. I stuck it on the sand bed in a medium to low flow spot with medium lighting far away from everything else so we will see what happens. I will keep my fingers crossed until something changes.
