Has anyone on here bought one from Whitlyn aquatics or aqua coarls? Thinking of possibly purchasing one from them. I don think they are the true ones. I am also inquiring if anyone has some frags for sale or know of a better place to get one?

I have one from both places. The aqua corals toadstool got huge and my polyps are long but not weeping. The Whitlyn aquatics toadstool is a big frag at this point but the polyps are long but definitely not weeping. Different tanks/lighting/flow may make them longer.

Which of the two more resembles a weeping willow? About how long would you say th e polyps are from both and which grows faster...Sorry so many questions! Have you ever heard of Biota? They have some to that closely resembles them. I read someone in a post referred them. They are in Fl and so am I so shipping will be much cheaper!

Wow! The whitlyn looks very short! I have a local guy That has these 2 for only 30 bucks so I might just go with the white one. He says its only 2 inchs long so definitely not a true weeping willow but It will work for now especially since I am picking up some other corals from him anyway on Sunday! Thanks for pics. There is someone on ebay now claiming he has true japense and with lineage but I forgot from where! attaching pics Thanks!
