This piece is simply not meant to be for me. I've tried ordering them 3x online and they always end up DOA. I've accepted that fate won't allow me to keep one. :cry:

They invested 4 years to grow out 1000's of fully encrusted hardy mini colonies and sold for prices I can afford. What a great company. I love ORA and my tank is filled with their beautiful corals.

Just imagine what they could have cooking right now

This is one of my all time favorites. Had a nice size colony that I lost last year. Just got a beautiful frag and I'll get a picture up during the week

This picture is beautiful but I think even a beautiful picture as this under LEDs may need a little temperature correction. I get the "purity" of the statement no photoshop but lighting effects photography and sometimes the non-photoshopped picture is unrealistic of both the true color and what we actually see in the tank. Can't see your tank only the picture. But nothing takes away from your beautiful coral, it is gorgeous

I had one that looked very true to that pic under LEDs. I have since lost it. But hey I'm colorblind so my opinion on color doesn't carry much weight ;)

Gorgeous pics, thanks for sharing! I've read that some people have trouble keeping pearl berry. For those that have had such great success, do you have any tips? I have been fascinated with this coral since getting hooked on the hobby, but I'm nervous to try....

Guzzlo that really looks like a Valida of some kind, not so much a pearlberry, at least from the angle of the photograph.
