I actually wanted to see any hobbiest colonies of it just in comparison because of how great yours looks haha. Confused why it isn't the more popular of the jawdroppers the colors are insane.

It is odd it's not more popular. When you do a google search the only other one that comes up is one Triton corals had.

I can sell more Purple Monster and Oregon Tort than I can grow... and the prices go up, too. Prices are going down on Fox Flame and Sexy Corals Orange Passion, but they sell like crazy too. These are not smoking hot, but they have been hot for a long time and don't look like they are slowing down any.
I can't find Oregon tort where I'm at

For those interested in nabbing a frag of the Jawdropper. I saw some of these frags two weeks ago in person. Tim @therman is the only guy I know that has a thriving colony.

I’ve accumulated about 25% of original list, and still find the HW my favorite. Still in the hunt for a RR Rainbow Loom and hope to be able to pic one up next weekend at Reef Dreams.

sincerely

Is Oregon Tort a slow grower? I can't tell for sure, but it seems despite being a hardy classic acro it commands a high price. Can't seem to find a frag of it for less than 80.

It does grow rather slow. I have sold a few for $25. I have 2 small colonies that came from my 120 and I will put 1 in the 80 and keep 1 in my frag system.
$50+ is pretty normal out here.
Here are my 2 when they were in the 120.
