Locally it's called the EA Rasberry Limeade. AE is the LFS that got the colony in and only sold frags. I believe they lost the colony. There are 4 or 5 of us in the DC area that still have it.

This is the nasty algae I have:

Thx Sara. I made a road trip to Mr. Coral yesterday. He's about 45 minutes north of me (on a Sunday morning with no traffic).

Here is the other 'Aussie SPS' I got yesterday, it's the long thin (out of focus) purple with white polyps one on the right. Kinda looks like an A. Horrida varient.

My LFS charged me their cost, 0% mark up, and I paid $1000 (shipping was another ~$400 on top)

Oohhh ... oohh ... I like the full size SPS colony on the right side of your tank!! That's a really nice formation.

This one? It's the ORA Hawkins Echinata (but I think it's an A. Turaki)
