Porites compressa source?

I have a bunch of yellow porites in my biocube…..
I’ll grab pictures when the lights turn on.

They used to be pretty common

I know, I kept them back in the day under MH and want to add some to my current tank....
 
I’ve never seen that stuff actually sold per se, I always thought it was an accidental thing ….
Does anyone have a colony they would be willing to frag from? This is for a college tank in the classroom and we would of course be willing to trade or pay for the frag.

good luck, my guess is you might have to locate a pretty old tank….
 
@GlassMunky … just curious how you came about that stuff and do you know if it’s pacific or Caribbean?
Im not sure if its the same porites hes looking for or not. Ive had this one for over a decade now, i dont remember where i got it originally.
 
This is mine
 
Heres mine. I got from ORA. My tank is about 2 years old.
The coral, its about 1.5 years old now. The first year, my tank was new so it was still adjusting, and i feel like its finally started to grow a little faster. Probably encrusted about 1 inch diameter.
Its under 10,000 K Metal Halide, on somewhat higher flow, and located at a prime real estate in my tank.

Super yellow.
