I remember not to long ago that the Australian corals started coming into the US. They were high priced and really popular. They also brought some of the most awesome acans the reefing world has ever seen. Never had those rainbow colors or really those regular colors ever been seen.

So now, how many of you own some Aussie coral?
 
My orange hammer is my favorite aussie coral:

That hammer is ridiculous!! That is one of the hammers I am after! :)
 
Thanks! The Reef Empire guys actually called me to tell me they got it.... I was there in a heartbeat :D

I also have some aussie acans. I don't think any of my chalices are aussie, and I don't have any aussie SPS since my echinata died *cry*
 
Sorry to hear that.

I have acan lords, plate coral, lobo, wellsi, sps, and a torch that are Aussie.

Wow didn't realize I had so much. LOL!
 
I used to be all out acan lords till I lost almost my whole collection. I have slowly added pieces back since then and they have been doing very well. So I have been more brave that I think I should be! LOL!

Oh yea add aussie scolys to my list. :D

Here were a few pics of my old acan collection.

I've been in the trade for awhile, seems like more and more people are getting into Aussie Corals, but the only problem that we're facing is that, if they're not being agricultured enough, Austrilia will sooner or later banned the export of them due to the high demand.

I personally perfer "ALL" Aussie Corals in my tank, the color intensity is UNREAL.
 
Yes, I got some from the first shipments because of the fears that Australia would close back down... We're such victims of hype in this hobby:tongue:
 
Show Off!
