On Saturday I made my weekly run to my LFS and purchased a nice zoa and chatted with the owner who gave me a Blue Ridge frag.
My only exposure to this coral was seeing it in magazines back in the 90s and it was stated that it was endangered and not available in the trade.
Fast forward 25 years and my LFS guy gives me a frag for free.
I came home and looked it up and a few sites have it for sale. I never thought I'd see it let alone have a piece of it.
In the LFS it looked dead almost like a piece of glass, no polyps extended and today my little frag sent out a few polyps to greet me.
Pretty stoke but also apprehensive as I know that it's endangered.
Anyone have this?
