Good dissuasion. For me...Everything has to be grown in-house to be aqua culture. No chop shop stuff like well...it's been sitting in our system for 6months now-naw still Mari-culture. But if a newly acquire mother colony grew new frags while in captivity then those new frag pieces will do it for me. I just ask questions and will usually know base on response from seller or tone of them. Everyone is different...I'm assuming...just my take...Thank you
It was sold to me as a frag of "ultimate Efflo" a few years back at a swap.
The maricultured, aquacultured, wild collected debate has always gave me a chuckle. At what point does a coral become aquacultured? Obviously freshly collected wild or maricultured pieces aren't aquacultured but how long does it have to be in your system before it's aquacultered? 6 months 2 years? If I cut a frag off a wild piece and encrusts the plug is it now considered aquacultured?
