To go off the title of this thread , it’s a great coral if you have a line on someone who has it and he is very generous. Thankfully the person I deal with is. Got one from him before and I got really sick and lost. I’m getting it again from him on the cheap side. Buy local and from the same guy and most times that person will take care of you when you lose something

I agree I like the Disney more, especially user halides with the more yellow green base color. Green and pink is not a real big favorite coral color for me, there are tons of corals to choose from with that combo. And yea with led the pink is really bold, but I still never even notice my frag. Maybe when it gets into a colony I will enjoy it more.

This all comes down to one thing period- If people have the money & want something bad enough they are going to buy it doesn't matter the Hobby or vehicle or anything else. I'm retired & on a limited budget but if I see something I like I figure out a way to get it, legally of course. LOL

My other hobby is fishing, and fishing tournaments, so I balance the 2, but when I do good in a tournament I splerdge a little for the tank and the boat and put the rest of the $ away in an envelope, my wife likes to pick Benjamin's outta that envelope I noticed, works for both of us:);).

I’d say no! Unless it’s newly acquired and being blasted by high light so it’s acclimating still..

it looks like it could be. did you buy it as a Homewrecker?
The most common discussion about them is the time and nutrient stability it takes to bring the pink out.

Its a pretty piece, its all up to you whether you want to spend that kind of money on it or not. Im going to give it some time to see if it will come down. Walt Disney used to be high priced and now you can find it for pretty reasonable. Im assuming the same will happen with the HW.
depends on how strong your home is
